Email password is stored in clear text

[MarcWeinshenker2]

I am in the process of trying to get email notification configured and have a support case open because it fails.  In the process of troubleshooting I discovered that when email is configured for a Secure Connection the password is stored as clear text in the config.db file.  How is this at all okay?!?

Hi Marc,

Yes, this is absolutely being addressed in the 10.9 release. Thanks for reporting!
