You cannot "convert" it and retrieve it, which sounds like what you
want. If you want to use it as a key to retrieve or verify something,
you can.

A simple tag in interchange.cfg would do the trick:

UserTag md5hash Interpolate
UserTag md5hash HasEndTag
UserTag md5hash Routine <<EOF
use MD5;
sub {
    my $val = shift;
    my $hash = MD5->hexhash($val);
    return $hash;
}
EOF

At that point, it would work as:

   [md5hash]what you want to encode[/md5hash]
