For Manual Password Updates

- On the Home page, click Settings at the top right corner of the page.
- In the drop-down menu, click Change Password.
- On the next page, fill out the following fields:
Old Password Type your current password here New Password Type your new password here New Password (Again) Type your new password again, for confirmation
If you find it difficult to make a strong enough password for your email, you can let the system create one for you.
To do this, follow the steps below:
- Click the Password Generator button, next to the Strength meter.
- In the pop-up box, copy the generated password and paste that in the Password fields.
Important Note: Make sure you have actually saved the generated password in a safe and easy-to recall-place. - You can check, or leave unchecked, Enable Digest Authentication for extra security.
Note: Digest authentication is a type of additional security measure. With this authentication process, a request from a user is sent to a network server, which is then sent to a domain controller. The domain controller then provides a special key, called a digest session key, to the network server that first received the authentication request.
If you have a validated SSL certificate then you do not need to enable this feature. - Click the Change your password now! button.
