  2. Click on the email address for which you want to change the password (in our example info@cloud86example.com).
  3. Enter the new password twice, at Password and Confirm Password and click OK.

Your email address password has now been changed. If you are using an e-mail clients such as Outlook or Mail you will need to change the password there as well. See the following sections for Mailing via Webmail and Linking Mail to an email client.


Troubleshooting

When saving, I get an error message

The Microsoft Edge Internet browser has a feature to automatically fill in fields. As a result, sometimes the email address and password is filled in automatically. As a result, you get to see the error message in Plesk when you click OK. Follow Microsoft's explanation on how to disable auto completion in Edge via this link. Or try using another web browser such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox
