Your one-time recovery code is used to recover your StartMail account in case you lose your password.
When you created your StartMail account in the last two years, you rcieved a StartMail one-time recovery code automatically during the signup process.
If your account was created before, or in case you lost that previously shared code, you can always generate a new code.
- Click on Settings.
- Click the button Generate recovery code.
- You can copy the code and store it, but you can also print it. Once you done that, click on Close.
- If you want to remove your one-time recovery code click on Remove recovery code.
- If you do this, you will no longer be able to use the generated code to recover your account.
Please note that when you use your one-time recovery code, another one will be generated for you.
