Does anyone know how long an email account/screen name will be unavailable for after an account is deactivated?

Names come back basically when Yahoo! wants them to come back. If they were deactivated for committing bad things….it may never come back. There is one person who posted on the site (I’ll edit this message later and post a link here) who got hers back after one year. She had hers deactivated because some one lied that she was doing something against the TOS. Here’s the link: The link

MMM….well…then I guess you’ll just have to keep trying and see if it’s available. They my not decide to recycle it for a while. It may not be the answer you want…but you are just going to have to try until you find it is either back or some one else has taken it.
