   There is a reason why I don't normally update software that works just fine as it is....

   Anyhow - after upgrading to the latest version of WP i noticed an issue in the dashboard with some links being unresponsive. After disabling all the plugins I found the culprit & deactivated it.

   Since that point I'm unable to login to wp-admin with my admin password & when i ask for the password to be sent i receive the message:

   "The e-mail could not be sent.
   Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function..."

   There was an SMTP plugin of some sort there but i dont remember it actually being activated.

   Any thoughts?

   i've gone through nearly every point there & still no luck.

   I followed the link from Frances Colanza on resetting the username & password in php admin, cleared the cache, deleted & reuploaded wp login file etc.

   Not sure what to try next. any thoughts?

   Problem solved - i added this to the wp-config file

   @define('ADMIN_COOKIE_PATH', '/');
