What's the best practice of store an email account into 1Password?
Sometimes, we need store email accounts, and we can store them into "Email Accounts". And the details are all in there. And we feel pretty cool with 1Password again.
One day, we need to sign in an web email with one of those email accounts. And then we find out that we cannot find any option in the browser extension panel to directly fill in the form. So we open 1Password and search for that email account, then copy and paste. And for convenience we save it.
So now we have two items in 1Password which actually store just 1 logical email account.
Any idea?

What I do is to store all relevant details into the email account item but also have a login item for webmail. I don't find that a problem and in fact link the two items by using a tag.

Hi @aGWkZ2zxGdP4Lb,
Right now, there is no way to link two separate items beside doing what Stephen_C's suggested, which is to tag both of them with the same tag.
The other way around is if you don't need the Emails category, you can simply just store it as a Login item and use the custom section and fields to add other information you need, like the IMAP/POP/SMTP info.
