Gmail BS

I think I'm totally screwed.

I got a web-based email account so that I could log-on anywhere. But then, a couple of days after starting the account last spring, I noticed I could download my email through an email client (Thunderbird, in this case). I set that up right away... and haven't signed on through the web interface since.

I have no idea what my password is on that account. I haven't needed it!

But now I'll be visiting my family for a full week next week and would like to be able to check my email. I have tried every single password I can think of and every variant I can think of and nothing works.

[truncated]

Anyone have any suggestions? I really don't want to bring my laptop and I can't not use email the week before I leave town (particularly since it's the week before xmess).

Does anyone know how to access email passwords in Thunderbird? I looked and found that I'm using the same smtp password for two separate accounts on two different mail servers, which makes no sense to non-geek me. Ugh.

My kingdom for better organization!

Update: I am just a total idiot. outcastspice rocks with the technical support for dummies. lol

computer issues, ack!, communication
