I' must ask this because to me it is important (thinking security) for members. Why would anyone be able to put in a user's name when they click on forgot password and then the system shows where they're sending the password to-- as in showing the user's email address. This means anyone can come in a get email address of users simply by knowing the user's name and clicking on the "forgot password" box. Is this something that cannot be fixed!!
