Hello Caius,
You mean a password reset? That can go wrong indeed and there are some chains that can break. The script can fail, the e-mail details may be wrong, the mailserver can have a hiccup, mail is blocked or bumped.
It will be good to make that secret question/secret answer in your UserCP first. Then verify whether your e-mail account is still up to date. If it isn't you could send me a PM and ask me to update it first while you can still login. Of course, you can also do that yourself, but please after you did the first step, because there is a chance that it will lock you out.
When you lose access to your account, you can contact me (through a temp account, e-mail, a friend asking for you). Of course I like to be sure I reset the account for the right owner only. The secret password/answer is one of those lifelines. So put some thought in those too.
