Well Yay and Boo! at the same time... It seems that if you had an address on .mac you got to keep all the aliases along the way as they transitioned, but sadly for me it doesn't work in reverse. If you sign up for [email protected] you don't retroactively get the ability to use .mac as well.
Background of this is I had some programs and websites activated years back to my old .mac address which is long gone, it dawned on me that I might be able to enable icloud with my same old alias and magically be able to get my old email address back but it didn't work out that way. Still nice to know. Thanks for the assistance On 29 October 2013 14:13, Phil Ward <[email protected]> wrote: > Yes I'm an old timer with a .mac address.
