Good time.
Today we will analyze such a seemingly banal question, how to lose an e-mail address ...
This usually happens with novice users who rarely use a mailbox: they registered on a couple of sites, then used them for six months or a year, and after that they needed to restore access to them, but there was no mail (and memory is a selective thing ...)?
In general, if you are faced with something similar, for a start I would advise you to calm down and remember on which sites you used "this mail" in general, to whom you sent something from your friends and acquaintances, etc. etc. The more such information you remember - the higher the probability of successful restoration of access to mail!
Well, below I will give a few ways that can lead you to the right place to search ... 👌

Where can I spy on my email address?
Method 1
If you have corresponded with someone from people you know - then in his mail there is probably your address. It is enough just to ask this friend to help you ...
It's also worth noting that many users have multiple mailboxes. If you have a "similar" picture - check those boxes that you still remember, it is possible that they contain your messages from a forgotten e-mail address.

Method 2
If you use services from Mail.ru (Yandex, Gmail, etc.), please note that your e-mail is displayed in the upper right corner of the screen (if, of course, you are authorized on the service).

Method 3
Almost all browsers save logins, passwords, e-mail and other information for quick access to sites. Those. if you have been using your browser for a relatively long time, then the desired box is probably also present in its memory!
In Google Chrome, all saved passwords are located at the following address: chrome: // settings / passwords
Please note that in this list, opposite each site is your mailing address that you used to register. Actually, you just have to go over this list and find out your e-mail!

Method 4
If you remember the site where you used the forgotten mail as a login, it may still be stored in the browser cache.
It is enough to open this site, click on the e-mail (mail) column and the browser will try to insert data from the cache. It may well work!

Method 5
If you have a completed social media page network (even to which you do not have access) - it is very likely that it is in the cache of search engines (for example, Google). Try to make a query like "Alexandra Petrova my.mail.ru" (this is just an example, all matches are random).
Search engine cache
By the way, by clicking LMB on the page address (in Google search), you can open its saved copy (on it, you may also find your lost e-mail).

Method 6
If you at least remember the service where you registered (Yandex, for example), then you can write in those. support and find your e-mail at the linked mobile phone number (in some cases, answers to security questions are allowed to restore mail).
Pages for restoring access to mail:
- Gmail (Google) (You need either a phone number or a second linked mail) - //accounts.google.com/signin/v2/usernamerecovery
- Yandex service - //passport.yandex.ru/passport?mode=restore
- Mail.ru - //help.mail.ru/mail-help/registration/login/trouble

PS
In order to never forget your passwords and email addresses, I recommend that you resort to one mega-reliable and simple way: write this information in a personal notebook that is in a safe place in your home. In such a notebook I have data from 20 years ago (those sites and e-mail are no longer in sight, but the notebook still stores them!).
