What if you forgot the password? (The Real Fix)

Since there is no "backdoor" default password, if you cannot log in, follow these recovery steps:

1. Check the Configuration File:
   • Open \MDaemon\App\MDaemon.ini in Notepad.
   • Look for the [Users] section. Find the line for your admin account. The password is hashed, so you cannot read it, but you can verify the username exists.
2. Use the Local Configuration Console:
   • Log into the Windows Server physically or via RDP.
   • Open the MDaemon Messaging Server application (the blue icon in the system tray).
   • Go to Accounts -> Account Manager.
   • Find the Admin account -> Click Change Password.
3. Reset via WorldClient (If enabled):
   • Go to https://yourdomain.com:3000/ (default WorldClient port).
   • Click "Forgot Password" – only works if you set up a recovery email.

The "Default" Scenario (Reinstalls / Appliances)

If you are troubleshooting an old server or logging into a pre-configured appliance, the most common legacy default credentials are:

• Username: Admin
• Password: MDAemon (case-sensitive)

Step 2: Edit the Accounts.ini File

Navigate to C:\MDaemon\App\ and open Accounts.ini in Notepad.

Look for a section like this:

[Admin@yourdomain.com]
MailboxName=Admin
Password=encrypted_string_here

Delete or rename the Password line entirely. Save the file.
