It is best practice to refrain from writing your password down. Your password is your primary defense and front-line security for your data. If someone obtains your password, they have complete access to your account, your data, and all the system privileges you have. You must not share your password because you are responsible for all actions taken by anyone with whom you share your password.
ITS will never ask for your username and password in an email - or in a link from an email. Never, ever. SERIOUSLY!
