verushka70Here's the Finch app finch as Fraser shared on the Due South! Facebook
group... albeit by one Erin Galbraith, not Katy Penland. Maybe the latter
shared it with the group after the former shared it with latter...?

Date: 2025-04-29 12:43 am (UTC)Maybe her email got hacked or she got locked out of it due to any number of things (it got hacked & used for spamming; she got phished; she entered the wrong password too many times & couldn't reset it)... So she had to create a new email.
I was locked out of my original verushka70 Hotmail for several years because it got hacked & used for spamming. No matter what I did, Microsoft wouldn't let me into it, wouldn't let me change the password - it was just locked. I was more than a little pissed off. I had a bunch of people's email addresses & more than a few story stubs I had started & emailed to myself on that account.
So I created a different, similar but not the same, Hotmail account. But I lost access to a bunch of people's email addresses. I could still contact people through LJ, but there were people who never got on LJ I lost touch with (like people on Asylum who went to Yahoo groups but never made it to LJ, let alone DW).
Then one day literally YEARS later - I want to say it was almost a decade - just for sh!ts & giggles, I tried to get into it... and for some reason, Microsoft let me in! I was able to reset the password & everything! It was really bizarre.
Of course, because it had been locked & not used for years, EVERYTHING WAS DELETED. 😱🤬 So I was never able to get people's contact info back that had been lost, if it was only on the Hotmail account that I got locked out of for years.
But it's just a guess on my part that that's what happened. My point is... it happens... & it's easy to get locked out of one's account 🙁 & not be able to get back in. ☹️
