Hmm... That's what I was afraid of. She was never able to login in the first place, because the email address was wrong so she never had the password... so basically, no, she can't access her account. Otherwise I'd've had her change the email address on it!
Thanks anyway, though. :) I guess unused accounts aren't ever just automatically deleted? I thought maybe they would be, since they're taking up space, but I guess not...

No, they're not (http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=127). (Which is a pity, sometimes, as I'd like to have aud, which is "pne" rotated 180°; that journal was created two years ago and hasn't been updated once. But, well, read the FAQ.)

I don't think space is much of a problem; the data pretty much sits in the database and doesn't hurt much. What's harder on the database is the thousands of users actually using the site, I think. (Oh, and I also heard that purging deleted accounts is also really hard on the database, which is why it's done fairly seldomly.)
