Forgotten Password Emailing Script

B

BioSmith

I have a basic MS Access database that includes emails, logins, and passwords
for authorized users. I want to create some way for a user who has forgotten
his/her login and password to simply submit their email address, and their
specific login & password will be sent to their email address.

What's the best way to do this? If a script is required, can you recommend
a website with a simple one to do this?

My site can run ASP pages. I am using FrontPage2003. And my site is hosted
by 1&1 Internet.

By the way, I'm new to ASP and databases in websites, so I can use all the
help anybody can offer.

Thanks!

Requires custom hand coded ASP (to look up their credentials from the DB based on the email address they enter) and use of server
side script to send mail (CDONTS or CDOSYS)
