<![CDATA[Opera Mail - View account password]]>Hey,

Been scouring the online help articles with no joy, so apologies if there is an obvious answer and I'm just a terrible searcher.

I'm using Opera Mail, and I need to set up another mail client with the same details. Is there a simple way to get hold of the incoming IMAP and outgoing SMTP server passwords? I don't have them to hand, and I would rather not bother the chap running the server my mail goes through if I can help it.

Thanks for any responses. 🙂

He reset my password and all is good. 😃

You can then base64-decode it (using an online decoder or local decoded or javascript etc.) to get the actual password.

That won't work for the IMAP/POP server though, but if it's the same as the SMTP's, you'll be good to go.

There are OperaPassView and WebBrowserPassView that can be used to deobfuscate Opera and Opera Mail's wand.dat. However, currently, those programs only retrieve browser passwords from the file an not mail passwords.
