  • How to Change an Email Password


    The steps required to change an e-mail password are different for each email system.

    When changing email passwords, there are three types of email passwords to consider:

    • Passwords in e-mail clients such as Microsoft Outlook and Eudora
    • Passwords in e-mail servers such as Microsoft Exchange, sendmail, and Postfix
    • Passwords in web based e-mail systems such as Microsoft Hotmail and Yahoo Mail

    Changing passwords in web based email systems is the easiest, because the e-mail password is only stored in one place – the server.

    Changing email passwords in client/server systems requires changing the password on the client and on the server.

        Hi Sonu,
        Can you clarify your question that, whether you want to change email password for e-mail client, e-mail server or web based e-mail system?
