Change your password
Replace your mailbox password with a new strong one, in three minutes.
Open Password & security
Sign in to My Account and choose Password & security in the menu.
Fill in the form
Type your current password, then the new password twice. The new password needs at least 12 characters and three of these four kinds: lowercase letters, capital letters, digits and symbols.
Select Change password
A green message confirms the change. Your phone and mail apps will ask for the new password the next time they connect. Type it in once on each device.
If something goes wrong
The new password is refused
It is too short or too simple. Use 12 or more characters and mix lowercase, capital letters, digits and symbols. Do not reuse an old password.
My phone stopped receiving mail after the change
Open the mail settings on the phone and enter the new password for the account. See “Set up your phone or mail app”.
