So I have an old hotmail address that I haven't logged into in a REALLY long time, and i know that hotmail used to have you reactivate your email after you haven't used it for a while, but I try to log in and it won't take the password that I was pretty sure was the right one. So I click 'forget password' and it says 'invalid address' or something like that.
So, does hotmail delete old email addresses now, or am I doing something wrong? I don't understand why it won't let me get my password back.

Having windows messanger sign in is considered checking your email. But, if you don't have messanger and you have not signed in within the 30 day limit, hotmail deletes your email address. ^^ I feel like a computer geek. Well, hope that helped some.
