Password display in email after registration

I'm using 3.1 build 318 of this splendid product. I'm concerned that the email I receive as administrator notifiying me of a new user's registration contains both user id and password in legible format. This seems to me to be an insecure practice and I want to eliminate the password from the email. How do I do this? I should mention that initially I did not have the encrypt box ticked but have now encrypted all users passwords.

Thanks

Tim

Hi,
to remove user password in the notification email open generated register.php file, find and remove these lines:

$label = "Password";

$message.=$label.": ".$values["Password"]."\r\n";

Thanks, Jane. Its easy when you know how!

Seriously, though, would it not be better if this was the default option at least when encryption was invoked?
