Errr no. It would be a massive security hole if you could.
 
Why would you even want to do this?

Maybe if I put it another way. NO! It would be a massive security hole if you could. Massive as in the press would be screaming for someone's head. Questions would be asked by governments. The world will tilt off its axis. NO!!!

What part of "NO!" don't you understand?!

GeneralRe: Get outlook password PinprotectorPete O'Hanlon14 Nov '12 - 2:05 
I'm not sure whether it was the N or the O. They're tricky.
