      @donq it happens more often that not.

      Here are a few examples:
      https://www.tompkinstrust.com/ - no user name
      https://we.windstream.com - no user name
      https://app.reputation.com/auth - a long list of email addresses (none of which are the user for this site)
      https://www.join.me/ - click on login then a long list of email addresses (none of which are the user for this site)

      Those are not just random examples - they are the first 4 links in my bookmarks. (The fifth link worked like it's supposed to!) So in this sample 80% of sites fail. Not a good average!

        First one has autocomplete="off", I have no user there either - nothing is suggested at all.
        Second one is 403 forbidden, can't even see page.
        Third and fourth have username field marked as type="email", id = "email", name="email" - nothing will hint that this is username or even text field. For me (having no accounts there) Opera suggested all e-mails, what I have had entered - quite like you described. Had I account there, results would maybe different.

        On sites what I'm using and have account for, username boxes usually are not marked as type="email", they are type="text". It is possible that Opera handles such "email" textboxes in strange (wrong) way, needs some more confirmation.

          @donq Ha! 403? Interesting. I can get there from any browser... And Chrome suggests some random email address for it, anyway.

          I think that all of this is saying that none of it works anywhere and that browsers suck. If coders of web pages were uniform in their actions then maybe things would work better but my only hope of having anything work anywhere near well is to get a better password manager. At least, that's my takeaway!

          Thanks for looking into those.

            This I can wholeheartedly agree 🙂

              For sites that use autocomplete="off", see https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search/autocomplete?_category=extensions. Scroll down on the page and you'll see 3 extensions that will force autocomplete to be on. One of them should work.

                https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/master:components/autofill/core/browser/autofill_type.cc

                Those will show you some of the matching code for autofill if you're interested.

                  Hmm, I can't reproduce this in Opera or Chrome. In opera://settings/addresses, I have 3 entries each with their own email address. None of them are suggested in the email field on the site. Same with https://www.join.me/login.aspx.

                    In that settings location I have 6 physical addresses 3 of which have email addresses none of which are the ones that show up in 6 email addresses that show up when I click in the email field at join.me!

                      Cool. Well, I'll add that to my arsenal of things but it seems that it will just add more entries to fields when I click on them 🙂 No saying that I'll actually get the right one!

                        @5zveqzrhwv Okay. I'd open the "Web Data" file in a text editor or sqlite reader and search for some of the addresses that do show up to see if they're in there at least.

                        If you don't find them there, I'd export your passwords to csv file (directions mentioned earlier) to confirm they're coming from your saved login data entries. If so, I would see if all the ones that show up on the https://www.join.me/login.aspx page have https://www.join.me/login.aspx for the page in the csv file. (Just to see if there's some kind of pattern besides a username being an email address.)
