dude, what? That's pretty bad... Nice way to "recover" old accounts on various sites, I guess, eh? Jeez...

  fastmail.com recycles accounts too once you stop paying.

    Oh wow. Any links to read more on this? So either don't stop paying, or move everything out before stopping? On the other hand, I guess if you have limited resources, why would you not optimize the use of them?

    Somehow, I got upset at the thought of Yahoo! wiping accounts, but not of FastMail recycling accounts. I have some weird psychology going on there. Somehow I have the expectation that a free service would keep my stuff for me indefinitely, but not that a business would when I stop paying. Do you know if they recycle immediately or do they give some time to catch up on payment? What would suck is if there are services that don't allow you to change your email, which might be used to identify yourself to their services.

    I registered a Fastmail account a year ago. Next thing I know, I had multiple stores (Steam, Target, etc) sending me e-mails that relate to a specific user account. Sad.
