Hi,

I defined a log-file in self-service-password config, but there nothing
is logged. I will check apache2 log files.

However, because mail-token works, I completely disabled ?action=change.
For that purpose introduced a new line $use_change = false; in the
config-file and adjusted one line in index.php, where the allowed
actions are stored in an array-variable. By default actionarray is now
not change but empty.

This does the trick. However, one could still do a brute-force-attack to
guess usernames and emails. But that would be recognized by the user.

Should I post a diff-patch for the files? I'm not familiar with php,
just copied and pasted ;)

regards,
Henning
