I am trying to add a new laptop to my Outlook Express mail account that is
on my old computer. I got everything in OK, except the password and I can't
find it written down anywhere. How can I retrieve my password ?
 
For what it is worth, the first couple of times that the Mail PassView
program executed in my system, it found just one account. Evidently the
setup program executes the tool using Administrator and that is not what I
use as my normal Vista account. When I did execute the tool directly, it
executed as me, not Administrator and found all the accounts.

So if anyone has a problem with the tool not finding accounts, they might
not be executing using the correct account.
