I'm in doubt about the 'Store plaintext passwords' option. What it does mean? Are the passwords sending in cleartext on the network? Is posible to catch and see the passwords ? What's the best practice about this option? _________________________________________ Ing.

Is posible to catch and see the passwords?store is a completly different thing than send cleartext on the network most implementations of CRAM-MD5 (email) needs the password to be stored in cleartext for the purpose to *not* send it unecrypted over the wire
