[Imapfilter-devel] Encrypted passwords

No. I mean "light encryption" that can be cracked with a
little work, but the work is too hard compared to the
results. You can decrypt the encrypted file and get the
password, but it cost a lot of cpu power and time, so better
don't deal with it for a simpley mail password.
