A Valid email address is that one address we can send emails to. Here are recognized principles for what constitute a valid email address. They are distinct in the Request for Comments documents (RFCs) printed by the lords of the internet. These credentials are not regulations but just statements of what a few people sense are suitable activities. Consequently, the people who compose email software have frequently overlooked the RFCs and finished their individual thing. Thus it is completely feasible for you to have been given an email address by your internet service provider.

When you say a valid email address, it means a working or active email address. This refers to any of the active email addresses that you currently use. Normally, when you create an email account, it will have something like a 3-month active status. Within this period, you need to log in to your account to make it stay active.

If you fail to log in to your account within the 3-month period, it will have a dormant status. When you log in to your account passed the 3-month period, you will be redirected to an account recovery page to allow you to recover your email account and make it active again.

Normally, the email or webmail service provider gives a user a short period to allow the recovery of the account without deleting any of the email messages contained in that account. If you still failed to log in within this short period of time, the service provider will delete all of your email messages but not your contacts.

If you have multiple email accounts, make sure to log in to those accounts at least once a month to make them stay active.
