I still use my first ever made email address, at this point it’s pushing 28 years old. However I have a major problem. I can rarely log into it anymore. There are so many attempts to login to the account daily from whoever out there that wants to gain access that the login is normally locked out for a period of time. At this point I’ve moved everything of financial value off of it as someone did get access once, but there are still plenty of random little things I’d like to hang on to it for.

I know I can just make a new one and ditch that one as a quick solution, but I figured i’d ask a wider community if they had any insights I might not have. It’s a Microsoft account, and my windows is tied to it, but I’m pretty sure I can just migrate that to something new.

    yeah at least it would make it a bit more work and honestly its often about not being the low hanging fruit. Im a home body so I would not mind bringing it a bit more local. Figure it would add to their vpn headaches as going to the region would not be enough.
