The other day I sent in a modify for a domain that I was tech contact
(using crypt-pw) and someone else was the admin/billing contact. The admin
contact got an after update notification that included my e-mail,
including the clear-text password. At one point in time NSI used to strip
the password off before re-emailing any form for any reason.

Also, I would love to use PGP, but they can't get that right either.
