Was it ever possible to change your email address username?
This is going back to 2009/2010.
One of my school friends helped me set up my hotmail email address back in 2009, even suggesting the password I should use. I remember being able to log in just fine for at least 6 months but then I started getting invalid email address/password when attempting to log in. I tried for quite a few years to recover the email, to no avail.
A couple of years ago I scrolled all the way to the bottom of my mum’s sent emails and found one clearly directed at me, I wanted to determine whether I had misremembered the email address rather than forgotten the password. When looking at the recipient, the address username was my school friend’s.
When I’ve googled this before, it normally states that it could have gotten the address confused with another contact; however, I can say with absolute conviction that my mum would not have ever had my friend as a contact.
I’m still confused as to how this could have happened, did she change the username of the email address and then the password so I could never get back in?
