Thank you.

Mysteriously my phone did pick up the eMClient emails today. It must have pulled the information from my old phone in the transfer but took a long time to process as it also did with se3veral other programs.

I was at the interface page originally and it appeared that I could change the password there but I was apprehensive about doing it. Thanks again.
