How to store password |
Hi guys,
I've just updated my password hashing to now use password_hash() instead of crypt() but I have another question. Thanks to narf and mwhitney. In my CMS I'm sending email via SMTP or phpmail. How do I store the SMTP password? Obviously I can't hash it as I would need to get the password in plain text to send the email so should I encrypt it and store in the database. Storing it as plain text just seems stupid? What is the best practice here? I never really thought about this one.
