I emailed them about this a few months ago after being spurred on by the creation of plaintextoffenders.com:

> I received this email when I registered with you last year, and was prompted by the recent creation of the site 'Plain Text Offenders' to send it to them. Somebody else has submitted their registration email too:

The reply was as follows:

> We realized that this area was of great concern to many customers and we have since removed password submission in our 'Welcome' email.

So to give their customers peace of mind, they made it less obvious that what they're doing is stupid.
