There is a program that can simulate an pop3 server to get your pw back. Found it on the internet and it works. Doesnt apply for other applications other than Outlook however. So if yre interested let me know

Stephane, yes there is a way to recover the password from an MS
Outlook PST file (personal folders):

I reccomend that you leave this type of thing to the experts, and ask
strictly that you do not attempt to find the password in any file
unless you are authorized to do so.

Mark.
 
can you send me that link please. does it recover the whole password or just a portion. Outlook seems to have generated its own password.
 
There is a handy tool to strip the password of a pst-file. The funny thing
is that this tool wasn't even written for stripping the password of a
pst-file but for upgrading the pst-file to a newer format. Stripping the
password was just a (handy) side effect. Don't use this tool for any illegal
activities!!!

Read the pstread.txt file included in the zip before using the utility!

Rename or move the original pst-file so it doesn't try to overwrite it.
