storing password lists in mails to myself on IMAP?

[Jim Hendrick]

What you are doing works. But take a look at password safe (Bruce Schneier &
Counterpane labs). Also Password Gorilla (compatible w/ password safe)

If you are truly paranoid, you could encrypt and email the safe back and
forth w/ gpg, or carry it on a USB stick.
