I forgot the EE login/password for one of my sites.
I tried to get reset via email login/password but received message stating unable to email.
Can someone PM me how to reset login/password?

Hi PRiley,
Can you clarify this? You tried the ‘forgot password’ link from the login form but EE itself can’t send the email? Are you the only Super Admin for this site?
Cheers
Greg

PRiley,
Can you copy /system/expressionengine/utilities/email_test.php into your root and open it up in a browser and submit the form please.
Does that work?

I tracked down the old password in some handwritten notes.
Back in business.
Thanks.
