How to retrieve a LastPass auto-generated password

I used LastPass to register a Gmail account. I need the password to enter it into Mail.app, Apple's email client, but I don't know the password. Help!

This is very easy to find out.

You need to go to http://www.lastpass.com and sign in. Once signed in you will be shown your "LastPass Vault". In the list of passwords their will be your GMail account. Click the edit link.

Next to the password box, click Show. It will then display your password in clear text.

Note: If you have the LastPass browser extension installed, you can access your vault using this rather than browsing to the LastPass website. Either way will work
