4Encrypt and Decrypt Imail passwords

6THE SCOOP
7
8search for "imail decrypt" on google and you
9will find serveral articles dating back around
101999 that discuss the insecurities of Imail's
11encryption scheme. To date they have done
12nothing about it.
13
14This is a perl module that uses the information
15from those articles to provide functions that
16allow you to decrypt and encrypt Imail passwords.

20NOTE
21
22I never reversed engineered Imail at any time and
23simply wrote the specs for this program based on
24code found at insecure.com's archieved message
25board. In fact I never run Imail, never recommended
26Imail to friends or loved ones and have no intention
27of providing Imail to any of my clients or collaegues.
