I lost admin password. How can I get it?

Good question.

You can use PhpMyAdmin to recover the password from the "admpw" field of the "lm_config" table.

Otherwise, you can use the PHP script code below.  Save it to a file (such as "mypassword.php"), upload it to your ListMail directory and browse to it.

Code: [Select]
<?php// show admin password from ListMail$listmail_dir = ".";include($listmail_dir."/config.php");include($listmail_dir."/admin.php");$link = mysql_connect($sqlhost, $sqluser, $sqlpass) or die("Can't connect to MySQL");mysql_selectdb($sqldb) or die("Can't select database, does it exist?");echo "retrieving password.. ";$row = mysql_query("select admpw from $ctable where 1");if(mysql_num_rows($row)>0){	list($pw)=mysql_fetch_row($row);	echo "  your password is <b>$pw</b><br>";} else {	echo "<b>  could not read config!</b><br>";}?>
