Bryan,

I would never send a password via email when it also contains the user
profile that it is associated with. If you can work out a method that
sends just the password, then this will significantly reduce the
exposure. It is still being sent in clear text, but without both pieces
of the puzzle, it won't do anyone any good.

What kind of risk do we take if I email an iSeries password to a remote user using my Microsoft Outlook client? Is this forbidden by any standards being that it's clear text?
