There are programs on the internet that can read the old information (even though it is not currently installed) and recover the information. Do a Google search for key finder programs and try out a few until you find the correct one. Next time I hope you save the email on a piece of paper and file it with the CD/DVD you create of the installation file and this bit of research may help you to remember the next time.
