Hello Everyone,

I am currently writing an Outlook Express backup program, and decided that I wanted to have support for the IAF files it produces (to generate an IAF file, go to Tools > Accounts > Export). Anyway, I have pretty much figured out how most of the information is stored in the file, but would also like to add in support for password encoding / decoding.

So my question is this: Does anyone know what type of encryption is used for the passwords in the iaf file? I have included a hex example below in case anyone wants to take a swing at it:

Code:
10 60 74 79 15 14 04 6D

The above code is representative of the word "example" (no quotes).

I don't need anyone to "crack" the encryption, I am just checking to see if anyone can determine the encryption method this is using. To me, it kind of looks a little like RSA or something, but I'm no expert.

Any help you could give would be appreciated.
