Hi Jesse, In fact I wrote this message after I read one of your questions. I have made this patch to enable my dbmail to work with the passwords I already had. I am not aware of the details of the other patch so if you let me know where to find more info it will be of help. But anyway there is no reason that the 'md5' can not be changed. This is source, so anyone can change it, including me. Please let me know why you would prefer to use non-salted md5 and what exactly does it look like... :)
