"Forgotten your password?" I didn't forget mine!

[Yonatan]

I don't know if it was a random bug or someone trying to pull something off, but I just received this e-mail exactly 10 times:

Here are your login details for the bulletin board at http://forums.vb-world.net/ .

Username = Yonatan
Password = (No, I'm not posting it here)

Don't forget that they are case sensitive!

I'm not mad - I just wanted to either notify the administration of this random bug (if it's a bug - although I doubt it) or ask the person who did it to not do it anymore! I remember my password very well, I don't need to be reminded.

I'll get over it.

Oh, and I have an idea:
In this forgotten-your-password e-mail, add something like:

The password was requested by (IP goes here)

Okay? Good!

I hate it when that happens,
it has never happened to me here, but it has happened to me numorous other places.
if its not too much to ask, could you please do what yonatan suggested and add a "requested by " and possibly if the IP matches any username here on VB world, post that too...??

That would be great, because then i can personally ***** at the person who tried to get my password.

I think that John or James can see who requested your password.

hehe i didn't do it i swear..

that has happened to me once here,(i didn't think i had requested the password, but since i got the email. then i did request it...)

From this pc logged onto the site for a week or so...then...asked for password etc. Immediatly thought John has canned me, rushed to email to print notification letter and frame it.....John you never write anymore..... *sigh*....but no, then got an email with password in it.


Was this some sort of glitch or something?

If you can read this, you can get a good job at computer programming. For NT, you'll get over it.

Yonatan, you should disable "allow admins to send you email notices."

XYZ It is annoying, ANYONE can get your password. For me, it is Zhs700. (John...Need fix).

It's a fake password, so don't try it...

It's "If not, you'll get over it"
