 Orange Email Closing - VxFan
In case you haven't received the email from them yet:

ee.co.uk/help/mobile-and-home-connections/broadband-gallery-mobile-broadband/email/email-closure

Orange Email will close on 31 May 2017.

The addresses affected by the closure are:

•Orange.net
•Orangehome.co.uk
•Wanadoo.co.uk
•Freeserve.co.uk
•Fsbusiness.co.uk
•Fslife.co.uk
•Fsmail.net
•Fsworld.co.uk
•Fsnet.co.uk

Bit of a nuisance for me (and I suspect others) as I've had an fsnet.co.uk email address for at least 15 years, and just changed the part before the @ for different things like Amazon, eBay, etc so I know who the email is from, and whether they sell my email address on, as in the case of a car insurer one year.

Yes, a nuisance for me, mostly migrated stuff across to a variety of Gmail accounts but still a few to do.

I've only just pulled my finger out on Friday and started changing all my fsnet.co.uk email addresses that I have registered here, there, and everywhere. Didn't realise that I had that many.

Interesting that some websites will ask for a confirmation of email address change, including clicking on a link to verify it before you can access the site again, whereas others don't. eg. Barclays didn't.

I still have Orange contracts for our phones. ( I think they were originally Virgin) .
Just had the orange sim card replaced so Orange still lives on.
