Well, let me explain what I am trying to do. In the
event that a user that already has a Zope account
forgets his/her password, I would like to email them a
new password. However, for this new password to be
valid, I have to change their old password. How do I
change their old password when they haven't
authenticated themselves(for the current Zope session)
in the first place? Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks.
