    Do frozen accts still show up in "forgot username" emails?

    I'm trying to track down what email is attached to an old frozen account, but am not sure if an email would even come through using the forgot username or forgot email option due to it being frozen.

    Weird. I've tried doing that with emails that 100% had frozen accounts on them. But no email ever comes through.

    I guess depending on the email service people have been saying things like mails sent to hotmail accounts tend to get lost along the way?

    Is the host of the email the thing that was purged? This is a lot of extra steps, but if it is, you could buy that domain if available and make an email on it. Not sure if worth the effort though...

    Unfortunately the emails I was trying to check were made on the old hotmail domain of �@live.com� which is not available anymore and definitely not accessible in that way I�m pretty sure ahaha but that is a very smart idea!!

    Ah same with mine! It was @(you need an account to see links)e.co.uk. I can still login, and I get the auto-repsonse saying they received my ticket, but nothing else -.-
