Resetting the Password for an Email Account

You can easily change the password for an email account. If you know the password, you are able to change the password through webmail. If you do not know the password, you will need to update the password in the cPanel.



Modifying the Email Password through Webmail

  1. Log in to Webmail.
  2. Click the Webmail Home button on the top right side of your webmail.
  3. Select Password & Security.
  4. Scroll down, click the Password & Security under the Edit Your Settings section.
  5. Enter your new password into the New Password textbox or use Password Generator ​to have the system choose one for you.
  6. Re-enter your password again in the second Confirm New Password textbox. The "Password Strength Meter" on the page will indicate the strength of the password. We highly recommend you use a strong password.
