The encryption is a simple shift cipher with the username used as the
key, and the encrypted value is stored in the registry as a textual
representation of the bytes. I've got a perl script which extracts a
password (currently available at
http://users.on.net/epearce/imailgetpass.txt if anyone wants to download
it), but it should be easy enough to write in your language of choice.
Someone else here had an Excel spreadsheet which steps through the
algorithm if you don't quite understand it.

Cheers,
Evan
