I forgot the password to one of my magazine subscription accounts powered by buysub.com and so I did a password retrieval. This is what I get emailed:

GQ The password associated with the email address, email@gmail.com, is "PaSsWoRd". This is a case-sensitive password that should be typed without the surrounding quotation marks. Thank you.
