My previous email was [email protected]. For some reason Microsoft outlook have blocked it out and forced me to create another email address. There is a lot of information in the previous emails that I need, how can I get back to them. Microsoft have told me that I cannot reestablish the previous email address. I didn't know they could be so dictatorial.
