I don't remember for sure that this worked, but I think what I had done in the 
past was edit the users file which has the encrypted passwords in it and just 
copy paste an encrypted password that I remembered to the one I was trying to 
set, then restart xmail.

Seems like I did something like that in the past.

Hi Fred,

Thanks for your help, unfortunately port 6017 is closed I only have access
using the shell prompt and don't know the Xmail admin password but I do have
full root shell access.

Regards
Barry

I use this to control my server:

http://www.webifi.com/xmail/

It talks to XMail through TCP PORT 6017 which is where XMail listen for its
control protocol.

You could also telnet localhost 6017

Then type "root"[ TAB]"yourpassword"[enter] Then type
"userpasswd"[TAB]"domain"[TAB]"username"[TAB]"password"[enter]

I have an old Xmail server running on a Gentoo Vmware box with full root
access.I want to send a mail as user15 but can't remember the password.I
have very basic Linux :( I am trying to reset the password for user15

I have tried entering say "user15" "XYZ" and saving the file but it does not
work.

How do I successfully reset this Xmail user password when the server has no
X server and no web admin.
