When did it start that email password should be at least 6 characters?
it depends on the site site you use...





like the one i sue is an asian site and that only requires 4 letters min..





but when i use either english or european ones they require min 6..





This has started because of the amount of hacking has increased during the 00 till now...





It was introduced pretty recently...with the confirmation code as people violate the site they use... but I think some sites made the rules of 6 characters since the internet started...
Reply:the longer your password, the more secure it is.
Reply:NOPE.
Reply:If the website says it should be at least 6 characters, it will probably reject anything shorter. I'm not sure when it started, but it's been within the past few years I've really seen that being a condition. I guess because too many people had their accounts hacked with only short passwords. The best passwords have numbers and letters in them...and symbols if the site will allow it.
