Not sure what your system is, but if you have one, make sure your email provider isn't the kind that deletes addresses if no one has logged in in a year or two.


Yeah, I've already lost so much stuff due to this happening to a couple email accounts over the years. Or, I mean, entire services just shut down (Geocities, Yahoo Groups, etc.)


Thanks, good tip. I am using gmail and occasionally log into the accounts to ensure the emails are being received, and there are not problems with the account.


You should forward every email to an account on a different provider as well. For redundancy


Gmail does this too.
