HotmailA free Hotmail account becomes inactive if you do not sign in for 30 days, or within the first 10 days after signing up for an account. Once an account becomes inactive, all messages, folders, and contacts are deleted, but the account name is still reserved. If the account stays inactive for a further 90 days, it is permanently deleted.http://help.msn.com/(cHJvamVjdD1ob3RtYWlscGltX2ZhcSZtYXJrZXQ9ZW4tVVMmY3U9JnRtdD1Ib3RtYWlsUElNX0ZBUSZmb3JtYXQ9)/help.aspx?querytype=topic&query=PIM_PROC_CloseAcct.htmGmailAccount InactivityGoogle may terminate your account in accordance with the terms of service if you fail to login to your account for a period of nine months.http://www.google.com/mail/help/program_policies.htmlYahoo MailYahoo!
