[Mailman-Developers] Validating passwords

Hello,

I have an idea for a feature:

The password the user supplies may not be too similar to the email adres.
A minimal check could be (pseudo-code):
if string.find(string.lower(email_adres), string.lower(password)):
    raise InvalidPassword("adress may not contain password")

this could be an option set by the list owner.

What do you think?

regards,
Gerrit.
