I was with talktalk for many years and have 5 x tiscali or talktalk mail addresses between my wife and I.
It is probably more than two years since I ceased my phone and broadband with them. However having looked online to check how long I will be able to use talktalk's webmail site it seems to me that I have already well exceeded the six months use before I could be locked out.
Does any member have a similar experience or have knowledge of what is likely to happen in the near future?

This site suggests that the official time limit is now 12 months https://www.broadbandchoices.co.uk/ask-our-expert/can-i-keep-my-old-email-address-ask-our-expert but you seem to have exceeded that anyone. However, irrespective of what anyone on here writes, you'll clearly have no right to complain if TalkTalk simply delete your email...

My Pipex addresess still work - haven't tried sending from them, but mail still arrives.
I've still got a talktalk address which seems to work - and I left them well over 5 years ago ...

but you seem to have exceeded that anyone.

However, irrespective of what anyone on here writes, you'll clearly have no right to complain if TalkTalk simply delete your email accounts without notice. I recommend getting yourself one or more new email accounts here: https://www.gmx.co.uk/

Use the 'mail collector' facility to get all mail sent to your TalkTalk accounts automatically forwarded to your GMX ones. (Then you'll only need to log in via the GMX site, rather than the TalkTalk one). You can then start informing all of your contacts about your new address(es) while, at the same time, not losing any mail sent to the old ones.
I have a Tiscali email address and I left them years ago. Still works and I use it for emails that may generate spam.

Thanks everyone for your answers. Especially Buenchico for your suggestions. I have other accounts which I can switch to when necessary. I will consider what Buenchico has advised.
