Password reset email wrong

[stefan]

if i click on the password forgotten link i get an email with a link to reset, but the link in the email is nonsense: 

it sends me to forgotuserpassword.action which is the site, where i entered the username to get the email.

ok, the problem solution is something else: Lotus Notes does not display the email correctly, so the link is hidden.

There is a KB entry for this

Hi Stefan,

On my test instance the email does have a link to forgotuserpassword.action but it says that is the link for requesting a password reset email. Below that is a blue button that takes me to a URL that does let me change my password:

I look forward to hearing how the blue button works for you on your instance.
