email password recovery link...how to capture it

[Ron]

Hello,

 

I have no idea how to make this password recovery function,

that is how to capture it in unigui.

 

Of course I make a cryptic link which the user has to click,

in the email, but how to respond to this from unigui?

 

Any ideas, anyone?

From my knowledge, there's no way to ask a mail server to send you the password.

Even in the mail server itself passwords are encrypted. 

All you can do is change the password in the server and send the new one to the user.

If you intend to send e-mails from a UniGui application ( and there's an example somewhere in this forum )

then you store username and password in clear in a database.

If you can accept that, it's obvious what to do next.
