    Is there an easy ay to change my password in Outlook Express 6 - without having to call my server to reset? The on line help is suppose to help but just leads me around circles. I do know my existing password-I just want to change it. (OE6, WinXP SP2, Sympatico)

    Thanks

    As a general rule you would change a password through My Account at your ISP - that's how it is with my ISP in the UK.

    reknaw--OE Tools|Accounts|highlight the account|Properties. On the Servers tab you should be able to reset the password. However, as PeteC's response has hinted, that may not allow access to the ISP if your account with them has a different password.
    There is also another place to set passwords, especially if you have more than one Identity. OE File|Identities|Manage Identities|Properties.
