recovering the password from MyBB database is not easily possible.
you should be able to reset the password for both your email account & MyBB account

Log in to PHPMyAdmin> Click on your Database name> Click on the SQL tab> Run the query below
UPDATE mybb_users SET password = '098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6', salt = '' WHERE uid = 'X';
Replace X with your UID. If you were the founder then your UID would be 1. Your password will be reset to "test" without the quotes.
