Hotmail imap password

To access your Hotmail account using IMAP, you'll need to know your email address and password. Here's how to find your Hotmail password:

Method 1: Reset your password

If you've forgotten your password, you can reset it using the following steps:

2. Click on "Forgot password" at the bottom of the login form.
3. Enter your email address and click "Next".
