How to Recover a Forgotten GMX Mail Password

By , About.com Guide

Having a password really hard to guess is one thing; remembering it another.

Especially now that your browser seems to have lost its memory, too, is there a way to get back into GMX Mail? If you have set up a secondary email address — your work email account, for example, or another web-based email account; also protected by a strong password, of course — for your account, resetting your GMX Mail password is easy and painless.

Recover a Forgotten GMX Mail Password

To recover a GMX Mail account after you have forgotten the password:

  • Go to the GMX Mail Password Recovery Assistant page.

  • Type the random letters shown under Enter the code shown.
  • Click Reset Password.
