Hi, well for the first question I have to admit that I was not able to figure out what you mean. But I can give you some thoughts on the second question. the actual sending part could be done with a mail-class. e.g. at http://phpclasses.upperdesign.com the more tricky thing is about the password. What do you do if your passwords are encoded by some one-way function like md5()? You *could* store the clear text pswd in some other location but that's also not good for security... You could also use a reminder phrase. But what to do if you forget the answer (which is usually my problem :-)). So perhaps it would be the best to generate a random password which gives them access again and then give the users the opportunity to set a new password. There might be a much better and more elegant way of solving the problem.
