NS-MTA-MD5
You can no longer choose to encrypt passwords using the
NS-MTA-MD5 password storage scheme. The storage scheme is
still present but only for reasons of backward compatibility, i.e. if
the data in your directory still contains passwords encrypted with
the NS-MTA-MD5 password storage scheme. See Chapter 7, "User
Account Management" in the Netscape Directory Server
Administrator's Guide

If there are not passwords encrypted using the SHA password
storage scheme, you may turn this plug-in off. If you want to
encrypt your password with the SHA password storage scheme,
we recommend that you choose SSHA instead, as SSHA is a far
more secure option.
