Hi
You could try this...
Outlook Express Password Recovery - Password Recovery Engine for Outlook Express
Or...
Outlook Express Password Recovery - Recover Outlook Express Identity & Email Passwords
The trial version only recovers the first two digits but that might help you.
Or if it looks like it's actually working it might be worth paying for.
I know nothing about either of these personally, this is just something I found looking for a solution. I ran a check on the first one and found this.

If you decide to try the registry fix, back up your registry first.
I like to use CCleaner to do this.
Every time I run a registry scan I make a back up and, it has it's own utility to restore it.
If you don't want CCleaner to make changes just go through the process to the point where you tell it to go ahead and bail out. You will still have the backup.
Reminds me of the story of the old lady who when asked why she used "incorrect" as her password said, "When I type in the wrong thing, it always tells me, Your password is
Incorrect".
I may not understand what password you are looking for but my e-mail account passwords are controlled by my ISP.
If I have problems logging in (which I have) I have gone to my ISP to recover my account password.
Or Mail Account provider.
