changing passwords

[Eric Boo]

Hi all, I would like to know how to change the password on the fly on
the url (security isn't so impt).

.../cgi-bin/sqwebmail?oldpass=aaa&newpass=bbb&newpass2=bbb doesn't
work.

Alternatively, since I'm using vpopmail, how do i update MySQL
directly on its vpopmail database to change the password? MySQL's
password() function doesn't work here. Is there another function I can
call, or can i use only clear text passwords?
