You will need to be logged into the cPanel account to follow the steps.

IMPORTANT NOTE: When updating email passwords, you will also need to ensure any other devices that connect to the same email account are also updated with the new password. Otherwise, those devices will keep trying to login with the old password - this could lead to firewall blocks due to the failed login attempts with the wrong password.
