Hi

I am shocked to say the least that the password field that you enter your smtp information in is not encrypted and of a simple text field type.

If someone hacks my wordpress site and gets into the dashboard they can easily see what my smtp login credentials are.

I work with freelancers and subcontractors so this is not ideal. Other than that I love the plugin.

Can you provide instructions on what file I need to edit to change the text field from a simple text field to a password text field.

This is quite alarming you didn't think to do this. I don't want anyone but me knowing my sendgrid smtp login details
