account (the account for which it's serving as an emergency, backup).

This is an account that you want to ALWAYS remember the log-in details for, and

keep heavily safe guarded.

In the event that a disaster strikes, you want to be capable of quickly accessing

this back-up account and/or trying to use this account to reset the compromised

account details (password, security question, etc).

By ensuring that these 2 accounts have no relation, other than one being used as

the recovery to the other, you greatly decrease the risk of having your main email

account compromised permanently. As you will be able to reset and gain access
to the account but requesting reset details to your backup account.

Adding Your Mobile Number...

If your email provider, or even any website with pertinent information on it,

allows you the opportunity to connect your mobile phone number as an extra
level of security for your account - it is HIGHLY recommended that you take

advantage of this option.

While you may be wary about actually sharing THAT personal of information with

a service, provider, or website, there's a main reason why you don't usually have

to be. When a company offers this feature in terms of account security and a

layer of protection, they generally have EXTREMELY SAFE methods for storing and
protecting your mobile phone number.
