In classic ASP there is no standard way (that I can remember) to deal with username/password, other than a using login page for authentication and session variables for maintaining state.

If you go to the code of the login page in your application and follow the logic you should see the login happen (where username and password are checked). You can then pop those values into a session variable (if this isn’t done already) and pull them out later to send in the email.

As an aside, sending a user their username and password in a plain text email is generally discouraged as the email can be read in transit = an opportunity for hackers. But that’s up to you…
