Dormant email accounts

I've been using many different gmail accounts for ages now. Since I'm trying to reduce dependency on google as much as I can, I'm looking into using hotmail/yahoo.

But I just noticed that yahoo, hotmail & google have this "inactive accounts" policy, which basically means that if you're not loggin into the account for a period of X months, it gets recycled.

Having like a 100 different gmails, I almost fainted when I red this shit, cause for 90 of them, I didn't login even once since creation (they just forward to a main account). But to my surprise, non of them got recycled...

So I guess for google, this is policy which isn't really executed..

Anyone has some experience with yahoo/hotmail in this regard?
 


I've had a few accounts closed years ago, yahoo and msn, I don't have any accounts that I haven't logged into in that long now though. I use all mine.
