He has a username, and a service token. He can't remember what email he used. Is there a way for him to recover? If he was sent a password reset to his email he probably still has access to it.

He could, I suppose, just try to send a reset to every email he can think of.

How many emails could he possibly have? I’ve been on the internet for the past 15~ years and only have 3, 1 of which is purely for work. Also, the email it’s associated with will have the account creation email in it.

I've been on the Internet for the past 35 years, and I have, by one count, tens or hundreds (I own domain names and make up new email addresses for every single entity I communicate with). But, effectively, I only have about 10 that I could easily get access to. Though, for a site that demands an email address before it will send a password reset, that 10s or 100s is very real. I never use a work email for anything that isn't directly related to the job I have them for, and I won't count those, though I probably have about 15 of those as well.

I also probably have about 5 that no longer work because the domains are gone (omnifars.moundst.mn.org and omnifars.mn.org are no more, I'm not even sure mn.org is a going concern with respect to handing out sub-domains to people), or they were UUCP bang paths. Sadly, I forgot who I was asking for, and so I don't know why _they_ have so many email addresses.
