Q: My rescue email address is an old email that doesn't exist anymore. This is preventing me from resetting my password for iMessage. What do I do?
Hello
I was trying to log on to iMessage and have forgotten my password.
I forgot the answers to one of my two security questions.
My rescue email address is an old email that doesn't exist anymore.
This is preventing me from resetting my password for iMessage.
What do I do?

So, your password for Messages is the Apple ID password that you are signed into Messages with, unless you are using Two-Step Verification, in which case, it would be an App-specific password that you can generate at any time.
Are you saying that you have forgotten your Apple ID password? Or, are you using Two-Step?
Cheers,
