Silly question

I used to be with BT dialup, but have since moved on to broadband with virgin. However, I can keep my 'old' BT email if I dialup at least once every 90 days... no biggie (bar the fact I don't have a modem!

).

Now, I want to leave Virgin - will I loose my email addresses?

You'll lose the virgin email addresses after about 30 days usually but it depends on the isp i think, best to migrate everything over to another address.

Hmmm.... can I not 'dialup' now and then?

Not with adsl, once you move on thats it im afraid but im pretty sure you can still access your emails on either the isp's website and/or the pop and imap address for up to 30 days after, i would migrate everything beforehand just in case though.
