Looks good overall, but left a few suggestions and questions

Click **Forgot Password** and follow the process with your full username (with the `.ddgov.support` suffix). If you still do not receive the email, add `ddog-gov.com` to your email allowlist.
Click **Forgot Your Password?** to open the **Reset Your Password** page, then enter your full username, including the `.ddgov.support` suffix, in **Enter your username**. If you still do not receive the email, add `ddog-gov.com` to your email allowlist.

If you do not know your username, click **Forgot your username?**, then click **Use Your Email Address**. This control takes you out of the GovCloud support portal and opens Salesforce Identity. That page is also titled **Reset Your Password**, but its **Enter your email address** field takes your work email address, not your `.ddgov.support` username.

The new paragraph is about not knowing your username, not about a password-reset email that never arrived, but it's nested under the Password reset not received heading. Should this be moved, or given its own heading?

Also, **Forgot your username?** capitalizes differently than the sibling label **Forgot Your Password?** used at lines 124 and 130 in this same PR. Could you please confirm if this is the exact casing shown in the UI?

### Password reset not received

Click **Forgot Password** and follow the process with your full username (with the `.ddgov.support` suffix). If you still do not receive the email, add `ddog-gov.com` to your email allowlist.
Click **Forgot Your Password?** to open the **Reset Your Password** page, then enter your full username, including the `.ddgov.support` suffix, in **Enter your username**. If you still do not receive the email, add `ddog-gov.com` to your email allowlist.

**Enter your username** is a bare bolded phrase here, which reads ambiguously as either an instruction or a field name. The parallel phrase later in the same section (its **Enter your email address** field) qualifies it with "field," so this line is inconsistent.

Suggested change

"Control" is jargon-adjacent for a clickable button/link. Plain language is clearer for readers.
