  Hey everybody
  I’ve created a blog by using wp. My problem is that I have changed my password and I cant remember the new one.
  The password im talking of is the one you use in order to enter the edit screen.

  I’ve tried to press the “lost my password” button. Then I get a mail. When I follow the mail and try to reset my password, i get a message that goes like this.

  The e-mail could not be sent.
  Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function…

  what can I do to get a new password?

  Best regards Frederik

  Podz is suggesting the other site because if you’re getting that error, then you’re using the software from that site, not this one.

  Good luck,
