Would it be practical to have common protocols like IMAP to support enhanced features For eg. IMAP protocol may possibly support change password. A IMAP server administrator may optionally configure a change-password hook on the server which would change the password on whatever backend he uses for eg ldap or a RDBMS or Active directory The advantage is that the MUA can support change password and the user experience will be a lot better having only a single familiar app to deal with. That will be a lot easier for admins to tell the users to change password regularly rather than giving them a new link and asking them to change password ( .. and that mail looks more like a phishing mail ) Thanks Ram ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
