closedBug in DragonFly BSD Handbook.

Description
Dear DragonFlyBSD bugs,
In your handbook, under the "13. Security" heading, and then the
"4. DES, MD5 and Crypt" sub-heading, the handbook states:
"By default DragonFly uses MD5 to encrypt passwords.".
But that statement is no longer true, since there was a Google-Code-In (Dec
2010 ?) project to alter the
default encryption of passwords to use SHA256.
--
Also, there is a typographical error on:
http://www.dragonflybsd.org/features/
Sub-heading:
DMA - DragonFly Mail Agent,
"...mail delivery and simply remote mail transfers..."
Presumably "simply" shoud be "simple".

I've made the changes to the pages; thank you for listing them!
The site's a wiki, so if you want to do it yourself directly, you can.
