Unable to reset secondary email account

[leebert]

My wifes email address is a secondary account, she has just upgraded her phone but when we've tried to transfer from android to ios we've had to do it manually and her password is XXXXXXXX  which she hasn't written down so now we are stumped as she is unable to log in at alI. When i go into email accounts my wifes email address isn't even there to reset the password? So now we can't access her account at all to reset her password & can only access her emails on old device. Hoping somebody will be able to help. Thanks in advance.

Secondary email accounts now have their own MVM account and you can't change the password from the primary account.  It's explained here.

But it's concerning that the secondary account isn't linked to your broadband account, as this may mean that it's orphaned and subject to closing down.

Hopefully a VM person will pick this up and look into it for you.
