Summary:                    dbmail-users show password
Description: 

I'd like dbmail-users to be able to show the password when doing a lookup
with -l. Doing a lookup in sql just takes to much time.

Mark,

Please make your case. I don't see the value in showing md5 hashes or
digests on the console.

We actually use plain passwords, and it is a real pain in the butt having
to logon the sql server, check the users password before we are able to
logon the popserver for a client to check some problem with a messages. (I
know our admin system should resemble the passwords, but they aren't always
consistent, and require a browser which isn't alway available for us).

Showing MD5, has no purpose for me, but unix crypt can be usefull to check
a password manually, or see a * in frond of the password when the account
was disabled. But then again we mostly use plaintext, with some older unix
crypt ones.
