      Thousands of dollars in games hinging on support for an almost dead domain. Brave.

      “We sent you a recovery email, good fucking luck.”

        My steam login is a Hotmail account but the email on file is my Gmail account. The Hotmail address is more like a username for steam.

      When I was graduating college 15 years ago, I wanted to create a professional firstname.lastname email. Outlook.com was starting to get traction and Hotmail was getting phased out, but I was advised to create my professional email under Hotmail.com because it would seem ‘more professional’.

      My main email is still the 007 related gmail I created first.

    I’m almost 50 and have the same email address made up almost 30 years ago. It was so dark & edgy back then.

    I’ve aged better than it has. Luckily I have a separate address for work.

      My first email, almost 30 years ago too, was with an ISP that no longer exists… My second email was on another domain that no longer exists. I do still have my Gmail account I got when it was invite only, but that one is just my name @ gmail (and you’d think it’s cool to manage to grab that one, but I get emails for at least 6 other different people who think that’s their address).

      Not to be that guy, but ackshually EarthLink was founded in 1994 and, for all I know, may or may not have offered email yet at that point.

      Also, AOL gang here, we can’t be friends.

    Reminder that your google account has a name which is not just your email address. If you don’t use google’s other services besides gmail and youtube, you probably don’t remember what it is. And you probably put in something stupid if not completely offensive. If you suddenly have to use google docs or something, people will see it.

    By the magic of paying an actual mail provider instead of using big corpo free ones you can have as many and as varied mail addresses as you want. And they all end in the same inbox. You can even get fancy and register domains and shit to breach into the world of ultimate cool mail addresses.
