Recovering an account if you know profile name but forgot which email you used to sign up

Question

Sign in to vote

My current profile is c627627KS which I created after I forgot which email I used to create my original profile under the name of c627627.

1. If you know your profile name, but not your email, how can you find out what email you used to sign up (even if it's just the first or last few characters of the email).

2. If you have two accounts, can you combine them?
