I have a lot of inactive users.

I thought if I made an MSN account I can add them all to msn and try and get them to come back.

I am talking thousands here.

Is there a way to make it so I can add every user with a hotmail, msn or live address to an msn account? I know you can import lists into MSN I just wondered how I could get them out of VB?

Thanks

I have just done an export from msn and the format is

<contact type="1">soandso@hotmail.com</contact>

If I could output every hotmail address inbetween those tags I could then import them into MSN :)

Are you sure they're really users? The majority of attempted signups I've seen are spam bots using hotmail, yahoo and now, gmail accounts.

Yeah, the site was popular a couple of years ago but then the server died, thats when I bought it and took over.

I have used inactive users but I think MSN might be a little more personal :)
