Before you start
Sign in to the intended mailbox and have permission to change its credentials. Prepare a unique strong password and consider the other mail apps that use this mailbox.
What to do
- Open Settings and choose Password when that action is available for your mailbox.
- Enter the current password if requested, then enter and confirm the new mailbox password. Follow the displayed length and strength requirements; enter passwords only in the trusted mailbox form.
- Save once and inspect the confirmation. Update the saved mailbox password in your other authorised mail apps when the change succeeds.
- If the result is uncertain, avoid repeated changes and ask the mailbox administrator for the appropriate recovery route.
What happens next
A confirmed change updates the mailbox credential through its configured hosting service. It does not change shared Account sign-in credentials.
If something goes wrong
A missing or disabled Password action, failed current-password check, confirmation mismatch or hosting error requires the displayed correction or mailbox-administrator help. Do not send either password in a support message. If you cannot sign in, this signed-in setting is not a password-recovery form.
