Dear sir, 

I just recieved the activation email from th stormpay.com 
the activation email contains the password to the site!

sir may i know why does the stormpay.com send the password by email with *all* the account details to the email address in plaintext that is not encrypted ?

i would like to know if during the transmission of the email if some one got hold of the mail and misused the account who would be responible for it ? 


hoping the u would quickly.
-aditya
