This method can be used to send a password reminder email to an account owner. The email will contain a link that can be used to change the password of the account in question.

ODS uses a template to create the password reminder emails. This template can contain a set of variables that will be replaced with the appropriate values:\n

%username% - The user name of the account.

%fullname% - The full name configured in the account, username as fallback.

%pwdchangeurl% - The URL to the password changing page. This can be configured via admin.config.set() and config option templates.urls.passwordChange which is a template which contains two variables: %sid% and %pin% which are the session id and the password recovery PIN respectively. The latter can be used instead of the old password in user.password.change().

\n

The template is stored in the Virtuoso DAV system and can easily be changed by uploading a new file and configuring its path to be the new password reminder email template via admin.config.set and config option templates.emails.passwordReminder.
