No

never send passwords a user will actually use for site in email. email is not secure.
* - only send a temporary password user will need to reset after they use the temp pass.
* - password resets, reset the actuall password. a temp password should be setup instead and checked on a failed login.
* othewise people could use for griefing others. this would be in the securitymanager.
