I was working on a GS site hosted with GoDaddy (last time, I swear!) and it seems that GS has somehow stopped working with GoDaddy's sendmail. We had the excellent p01-Contact Form plugin installed, but it stopped sending form emails sometime last week.
So, to help determine whether it was a problem with the plugin or a problem with GS itself, I thought I'd try sending a password reset... and now that email seems to have disappeared into the ether, leaving me with a new, random password that I can't get to. So now I'm locked out of the admin page as well!
I need to file a bug report on that (a password reset request should never delete the existing password until the new one is used to log in), but first things first -- I need to get my admin account back! Is there anything I can do through FTP to accomplish this?
