Hi there ljp56
Thank you so much for your post and welcome to the community forums, it's great to have you here.
I am so sorry to hear that you are facing this issue with your email and thank you to our community member goslow for their help here so far.
We are cancelling email addresses that are no longer attached to current and active services and we would not be able to reinstate an address that does not have an active account or us to move the address to. I am so sorry about this, but I can try and see if we can regain temporary access for you to move any emails etc across. I will pop a private message across so we can try, but I do need to advise that we cannot guarantee access will be able to be granted.
I will pop you a PM across now, please keep an eye out for the envelope at the top of your screen alerting you to a new message.
