  Hi Waynedeatherage,

  1. what email account are facing problems with?

  2. have you tried to change the password for your account?

  Best way to prevent someone to enter your email account is to choose a strong password.

  If you are faced with the question, even after changing the password, then you will need to contact your email provider for assistance.

  Hope this information is useful.

• Prevent the sendout spam using my email address

  De :  Allen

   

  My email box is full of "returned and Undelivarable Messages" using my e-mail address as sender.  Some are in foreign languages.  How can I stop someone from using my email address to send mass spam e-mail? My antivirus programs and spyware do not seem to help.

  De :  Malke

   

  You can not. A spammer would have got your address because your email address is in the address book a friend on the computer infected friend. Or could have clicked on a spam message (sending that message "unsubscribe" to a spammer allows them just to know that they have a direct email address). Or maybe you gave your email address to a company without a good privacy statement or an evil that lied about their privacy policy. Your computer is perhaps even infected and spammers now have your address.

  All you can do is:

  1 make sure that your computer is free from virus/malware so that you know that you are not guilty of sending spam.

  http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

  2. get rid of this email address and make more sense to give a new. Use a "disposable" for spam free email account.

  3. use filtering, both at the level of the web server in your mail client if you use an anti-spam. You have usually no control over the filtering of spam on your web server except to turn it on and possibly have white/black lists.

  Here are some links to help you understand spam and what you can do to limit your exposure to it:

  http://www.spamlaws.com/
  http://www.Mall-NET.com/spamfaq.html

  Weblinks of general security that are aimed at end users - use their research capacity to look for articles on websites talking about spam since there are lots of other useful:

  Spammers are too smart stop the time as your e-mail address, they stole. It use more.
  The best solution is to call your ISP, ask a NEW e-mail address.
  Then remove your current address with the new.
  Of course, you will have the tedious task of informing your contacts of your new address.

• my emails I send are put in spam

  Hello I have problems when I send an email or replay an email. It's going in the other box to spam anyone!

  I hope some can help you with the problem please? Thank you

  This support forum is for Thunderbird and your issue is not with Thunderbird, but I'll try to help anyway.

  This happens with every email you send to someone, or just for one or two people? If it's just for a few people, then they need to tell their service/e-mail program that your e-mail is not spam/spam. Then your emails won't go into their spam folder more.

• Someone is using my address to send spam.

  I receive mail that I did not send messages "reviewed mail." These messages have my address email but different sender name. How can I hack my email right?

  It would be useful for one of your contacts to know that an email is really from you.

  One method would be to create a html signature and use it when you send emails to your family and friends.

  They may have already received some of these emails "bogus", then perhaps it might be a good idea to email appologising if they received fake e-mails allegedly from you. Inform them that they can say in the future if the email is to you if he has the specific signature as indicated in the email.

• I did my video but I can't send email because I don't use MSN e-mail, how do I put in my comcast email to send it to a friend?

  I worked for 2 days to find out the movie maker, I thought happily, finished my video of my grandson and want to send it to a friend who will put it on a DVD for me. I can not send it because I do not use Outlook Express to send things, how can I move it to my comcast account so that I can send by e-mail?  Or I can send it to my husbands google account, I do not use Outlook Express and that's what he's going to in order to send an e-mail or publish it to the web.  Please help, her birthday is this Saturday, November 19 and I want to give her, and I would add that it is to have heart surgery Thursday.  I'm desperate, I THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP.

  Hi, Catherine.

  You'd better post in the Windows Live Solution Center-Hotmail like that is dedicated to Windows Live Hotmail.

  If you have not implemented alternative methods to check your Hotmail credentials, I suggest do it after your account is returned.  For more information, see Security Hotmail to protect and recover your account .

  Good luck!

• Outlook Express - cannot send emails, can still receive emails. Send and receive worked very well until 13/04/11 - on all our computers

  Use Outlook Express 6.00 to manage e-mail.  Worked fine until this last week when it is able to receive emails, but sending is less error - unknown error - Protocol: SMTP Server Response: 550 your hose. 66.117242.170 is in our database of RBL. Port: 25. Secure (SSL): No, Server error. 550 0x800CCC69 error number.

  We have this problem on all our computers - no changes by us during this time.  Not sure if a Microsoft issue or our Internet & E-mail provider.  They tried to say the problem on our end, not with their system, but did not have this problem about a week ago.

  Any ideas on this problem?

  You have been blocked for spamming. Contact your ISP for help. They are the only one who can fix this for you.

• My junk mail is to get term with mail that is sent using my email addresses. How can I stop this?

  My junk mail is to get term with mail that is sent using my email addresses. How can I stop this?

  I can't block emails from myself, I sometimes need to send things, so I got them at a later date.

  I know that I can view the source of the message, but I just want to stop this garbage that runs through for me.

  Can anyone help?

  There is not really a way to do it.  Just like you cannot block spam from your mailbox home - anyone can send you mail and anyone can use a false address 'return' that makes it look like it came from you.

  In fact, it is incredibly easy (only 10 letters typed) to send an e-mail that looks like it comes President @ whitehouse.gov.  That's how spammers do, because there is no check on email (I wish the people who invented the email 40 years ago had thought of that), but it is not just.
