A password manager solves this problem

I knew someone would say this. lol If you're away from your computer and haven't installed the password manager to your phone (I'm not nearly alone in this), then you may need to fall back to searching your emails. Better?

Anyway, this doesn't solve the other technical problems you may hit at some point using this trick.

I'm just giving people a heads up. It's a useful tool for certain things, but it can be overused.
