You may check the source of exUserFolder to see what encryption is used
there, but I think you'll not be able to recover passwords from this.

You might want to take a look at PAS, especially check the ZODB plugin.
Maybe it already uses same password encryption as exUserFolder. If not
then, I think, it is not a big deal to write own plugin that will
encrypt the passwords same way as exUserFolder.
