Re: Plain Text Password Disclosure vulnerability in rediff mail

And?  Every web application sends passwords as plain text unless they are using SSL.  Pretty much any "encryption" that 
they may do client side that isn't SSL is meaningless.  I hardly see how being able to sniff passwords from a site that 
isn't using SSL is big news.
