Instead of creating a new gmail account, dont forget that you can add an "+evernote" to your existing one. if your email is yourname@gmail.com, then any word you add after the plus sign still goes to yourname@gmail.com. So you can send an email to yourname+note@gmail.com and it will still go to yourname@gmail.com.

So in Gmail, set up a rule that anything sent to yourname+note@gmail.com is forwarded to that hard-to-remember evernote email. Then from now one send your evernote email to yourname+note@gmail.com. To make it even better, set the rule to also label anything sent to yourname+note@gmail.com as "Evernote Backup". Now everything in evernote has a backup.

Have fun!
