I received an email from my address, but not send it.
I received an email from my email address, and the text was a phishing scam. I have not clicked on anything in the message. I ran my security software and found no problem. I'd do anything else? Thank you for your help.
It is not uncommon for messages of spam and phishing to have a fake sender name and address because if you're spamming, you will not use your real information. The idea behind using your name and address as the sender, it's that you're not likely to block you.
Of course, it is always prudent to consider whether someone might have actually gained access to your e-mail account, consider changing your password, but usually it's just a case of falsification of documents.

account but that is not really - called "Spoofing." That means its 'Possible' emails
were not really you, although they may have your contact list. Have someone

I wasn't there when my account has been hacked. How is it that compromised the accounts of those who have received the emails not authorized by me. Should I change to another email account/address e-mail so that they feel safe to receive future email from me?
If they do not follow all the links or software as a result of these messages, so there is no risk for them.
As for you, if you can still access your mailbox, log in using a web browser, change your password, update the security features, and you should be sure again.
If your mailbox provider allows it, be sure to enable always 'use HTTPS. That can go a long way towards ensuring you don't get hacked again.

Why can my customer receive e-mails from my iPad but not my IMac?
Hello, I have an iMac OS X Yosemite, Version 10.10.5, 3.5 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 and an iPad. Last year, I worked with a client, have no difficulty emailing back. I use Yahoo Mail. Recently, my customer migrated from Lotus notes to Outlook (version 2010) and cannot receive my email from my iMac. Only they can, however, make from my iPad. It's the explanation of their IT Department. "I have recently gone from Lotus to Outlook. When I was on Lotus our security does not come into conflict. When I migrated to Outlook the Outlook security is that collide with your security is why I do not receive emails sent through your computer. Safety on the iPad is different and is compatible with my computer which is why emails sent from your iPad come to me. "We tried to check SPAM, junk mail, basic troubleshooting. I'm not big on technique and I need to be able to send this email to the person of my computer. Help, please!
Is the address of the customer e-mail different since he switched to Outlook? If so, have you changed his e-mail address in your Contacts? My guess is when you type an email to that customer and you start to overlay in his name in the of: domain, Mail automatically fills to its OLD yahoo.com email address.
If you have two email addresses on your iMac for this customer - one for his old account from yahoo.com and one to his new Outlook account, delete the OLD e-mail address to your Contacts.

I have a macbook of El Capitan and my first day on vacation to halfway around the world, I can receive but not send emails. I had a conversation with my provider and all the settings, usernames and passwords are correct. I tried everything I read so far related to this topic from Apple and I can not send. Any other suggestions?
What happened to me several times over the years, as different local networks may not connect in order to SEND email but without reception problems.
My solution is to always use the WEBMAIL service belonging to the service of your email provider... be it Apple or Blueyonder, or anyone.
Occasionally, a national internet service - for example; the Sultanate of Oman, in my experience - can refuse to deal with mail because the discussion on a particular topic is not permitted in the jurisdiction of that country, but it is very rarely the problem. Try just using the webmail online pages - for example; webmail service to iCloud in the case of an Apple (.mac, .me, .icloud) email address - and who usually works for me, anyway.

I'm keeping the original copy of the software of the exchange of letters.
Hello Asif,
Microsoft customers are often the target of a scam that uses messages falsely promise money. Victims receive messages saying 'You won the Microsoft Lottery!' There is no Microsoft Lottery. Delete the message. I suggest you to see the following links for more information.

Yes, it's fake.
You can write to * address email is removed from the privacy * and complain, but it is more than probable that
address is false, and the mail comes by the way, then you would be wasting
their time and yours.Just delete it.

Of course it makes it look like you or the other person who sent the
