Subject: Re: Looking for secure way to share passwords
I've also successfully used Lastpass with customers with
multi-platform/less-techy requirements. However there's one thing about
their service that's really important to note - they can't do password
resets for your account the way most web services can. If you forget
your login to their site and don't use their browser add-on you're SOL
(recovery works off the plugin). I completely lost a Lastpass account
this way earlier this year.

Make sure your team understands how important it is to keep track of
their Lastpass password, or walk them through how to set up the plugin.
