Author password reset email

My password reset emails aren't getting through so I have two problems,
getting the email to work and resetting the passwords from users who have
already missed their reset email.

My health emails are getting through which puzzles me.

<system.net>
<mailSettings>
<smtp from="admin@mydomain.com" >
<network host="mail.myhost.com" password="mypwd"
userName="admin@mydomain.com" />
</smtp>
</mailSettings>
</system.net>

Any suggestions on how to reset the passwords would also be appreciated. I
presume I can delete and recreate the profile, but doesn't that seem stupid?

Ok, turns out the email was trapped in my spam filter. Is there any way the
end user can change their own password, as in with just about any other
authentication system? The reset password is absurdly complex!
