I received the login info email after I clicked the activation link in a previous email, this means the password must have been stored in a database until I clicked the activation link That's not a good sign. The best case scenario I can think of is that the email body is generated at registration and sent out once the activation link is clicked. After this the template is deleted. But it'd be far easier just to store your password in plaintext and go from there. Like you, I'm suspicious.
