For some reason I am locked out of one of my email accounts. Hotmail. It's the one I use as a "slush account" to join groups etc. Not that important, but I hate that I don't have access. I can't remember any of my "secret" information because I lie about that. Do you have any suggestions? I think it does ask for the last email I received, with a subject line and maybe the sender. Could this be a scam from a hacker trying to get more information? Or could I have someone just send me an email to that account and use that? Just frustrating as hell.

Thanks for any help.

Don't know if that's the same hotmail address I have for you, but *I* just sent you an email with the subject line "Hope this gets to you". 1/24/19, 8:46pmEST

Thanks Chaos. As you will see in my reply, it's not that email.

Shoot.
Without that secret info you won't get anywhere.
Why in the world didn't you use at least something you'd always remember?
I really don't know how you could get it reset.

Thanks. I can't remember why.
