Password reset emails create a trail of your account activity.
Every password reset request generates an email in your inbox and a log entry at the service. That trail shows when you got locked out, accounts you have, and roughly how you use them. Someone with access to your email sees a map of your online presence through reset history.
Delete password reset emails after using them and review your email for old reset requests.
