A user in #anope the other day suggested this, but never posted it in the forum as instructed, so what the hell, I'll do it for him.
<SuperGeek> Anope should have a feature like /msg NickServ lostpass for IRCops and nets w/ encrypted databases
<SuperGeek> it would send an email to the user
<SuperGeek> and it would contain
<SuperGeek> /msg NickServ RESET [radomkeys] [newpassword]
<SuperGeek> randomcharacters*
<SuperGeek> Then it can reset ur pass
<owine> an oper can change a password so a user can identify and reset it
<owine> but i agree that would be a nice addition
<SuperGeek> yeah
<SuperGeek> I'll ask one of the coders if that would be a possibility
<owine> post in the feature request forum
