Even with CAcert the amount of people requesting lost passwords has
gotten to the point that manual password recoveries are getting to be a
major issue (labour wise) and we've started charging US$15 per
incident... On the other hand we've also include ways to file disputes
in an automated fashion, not to mention the existing lost password
recovery system... Yet people still manage to screw up after all that...
