It seems you'r not encrypting the password but hashing it
explanation :
- pasword *encryption* can be reversed, using some secret key
- pasword *hashing* produces a unique String, that DOES NOT CONTAIN
infos about the password (cannot be reversed). The hash algorithm (MD5,
SHA...) is designed so that it is VERY difficult (but not impossible) to
build another String that will produce the same hash.
If you're using hashing, you cannot get the password back. You may
provide a 'reset password' link to user having lost they're password,
that will create a new (random) password and send it by mail.
