Don't fret, the hard part is knowing where to look and what to do. Email and flashboards just need to be updated to use the same password as arserver. The commands are outlined to do this in the article; just make a backup of the config files before running the program to update the files ( server.conf and emaildaemon.properties).

** *gulp* Thanks Axton for the explanation.

I am not sure that they use the same alg between the ar.conf and emaildaemon.properties file, but they may. Do keep in mind that there are numerous other places that this password is referenced in addition to the email engine. I covered them all in the linked article (excluding any references within application - e.g., ITSM7/CMDB). If you do modify the files directly, you need to signal the owning process to reread the new config values. This is typically done with arsignal for arserver and a kill for emaild.
