I have tried the "Retrieve lost account" thing but I do not know my secret answer.

This is the email they sent me (the x's are just replacing my real information)

Dear xxxxxxxxxxxx,

This is an automated message generated by Steam account administration to help you reset your Steam password.

Please enter the following code into the 'Verification Code' field of the 'Forgotten Password' dialog. (Enter the code exactly as written. You can use copy/paste operations to enter the code):

XXXXXXXXX

Please also enter the *answer* to the following question into the 'Secret Answer' field of the same dialog:

What did customer support last reset your passphrase to?

IMPORTANT: Please do not reply to this message to attempt to reset your password -- that won't work. You must enter the above information into the Steam application.

It's the email everyone gets from Steam. You answer your question in Steam.
