To active your email address for longer, you will need to log in to this account at least once in 90 days at bt.com or just by using a PC program or mobile device.

If you are using a computer program or mobile device then it is essential to make sure that you are using the correct email settings. Using the incorrect settings could result in your email might get suspended or even deleted.
