Exception message contains plaintext password
---------------------------------------------

                 Key: CAMEL-3980
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-3980
             Project: Camel
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: camel-ftp
    Affects Versions: 2.6.0
         Environment: Configured via Spring
            Reporter: Ales Dolecek


The exception thrown by RemoteFilePollingConsumerPollStrategy shows URI and 
shows password in plaintext. Since we report ERROR and WARN messages from logs 
to external destinations (SNMP and mail) the password leaves the system and we 
are loosing control over its spread across enterprise. I decided to mark this 
as major issue since it is security related. I have found other issue 
#CAMEL-3099 related to cleartext passwords in log files. It is closed however - 
don't know if I should try to reopen it.

Here is sample log (the username and password parameters were altered):
