unwanted emails sent to my friends without permission

I have a small list of contacts and someone sends sex sites and messages to friends on behalf of me and my email without my knowledge address

Hello AnitaTaylor,

1. What is your email service provider?

This may be caused if your account is spamming your contacts, this can happen if your email. I suggest that you change the password for your account and a Malware scan on the computer. You can follow the link and run Windows Onecare on the computer online scan:

  • I can't delete emails or emails sent to delete.

    It is a recent phenomenon.  Outlook Express will not let me delete unwanted emails or remove things in the sent folder.

    You have the corruption of files dbx in more than one place.
     
    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox (if you can) and move messages you want to record off the deleted items and sent in local folders, items create you. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, the files of user OE (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
    Compact all folders as described below.
     
    ****************************************************************************
     
    To avoid this in the future:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     
    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  • email sent, received as if a different e-mail account

    Some of my emails sent from my gmail account are received as if they were my mother's aol account. If the person responds without changing the email for my account, then the answer is my mother. I noticed in "sleep" mode my computer says I 2242 unopened emails. When I click on that it shows the email address of my mother, not mine. I asked her unopened emails how she and she's only 12. Person that I talked to has never heard of this kind of question. Hope someone can help me.

    Carla

    If you use OE, then go to tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties and verify that the parameters it for e-mail accounts.  If you don't use OE, then you need to indicate which program you use to access your e-mail.  If its through a webbrowser and gmail.com then you must ask to gmail.

  • Delete unwanted emails

    I use Outlook Express. I can't delete an unwanted email without opening as soon as I put my pointer on it. Also when I close an open e-mail, immediately below email opens, if it has been previously opened or not. This is a real problem because I can not remove the unwanted and offensive emails, nor I can block them before opening.

    You've obviously got service pack installation problem (which one, in passing, SP1 or SP2?).

    I'm not qualified to answer why your computer crashed the last time that you have installed the service pack.

    Suggest you take this issue of pack service for a more technical forum like the one below:

  • Hotmail: the current format of hotmail is clumsy and stiff when retrieving emails "Sent" or "deleted".

    The current format of hotmail is clumsy and stiff when retrieving emails "Sent" or "deleted". We get bundles of emails when trying to get one on the screen. How can I isolate and recover a single e-mail received or sent, to be able to print without the printing of other incoming or outgoing emails? waste of ink are considerable. Nuisance is infuiating.

    Better yet, can we just get back to the proper format, we had in this regard for the years?

  • How to block unwanted emails on iphone5s

  • hundreds of unwanted emails went to the Inbox

    When I look in the mailbox for spam, I have hundreds of old spam came to my Inbox. So, I have to go through all those emails and delete them. So I have a few rules to configure to have emails going to spam. The rules work OK. The problem is that many of these emails sometimes get moved above. Very annoying to have to laboriously deal with hundreds of old unwanted emails. I'm under El Capitan and 9.3 of Mail. How can I stop this from happening?

    A way to have the rule to remove the email instead of putting it in junk mail.

  • Emails sent from thunderbird arrive to spam, very well arrive sent e-mail web host.

    I use 1and1 hosting for a provider of e-mail company website and the company. When I send emails to gmail accounts using the 1and1 interface they manage very well, but when I send them using thunderbird they arrive at the level of the junk e-mail folder.

    I've confirmed this by sending to several different gmail addresses and company represents several I use in thunderbird. The same as always the case, emails sent to gmail via thunderbird are sent to spam, but those who are sent directly from 1and1 arrive perfectly.

    Is there a setting in thunderbird that is causing this problem? I have tried Turing on and outside, anti-spam and antivirus put in mail electronic provider 1and1 but to little effect. Thank you in advance.

    When you send via webmail goes directly from 1 & 1 webmail server.
    When you send via thunderbird it goes via the smtp server.

    It is possible that gmail is down your IP address that sends spam.
    Try changing your IP address to test.

    The SMTP server associated with the host of your domain, it is possible that the IP of your host (or range of IP addresses) can be on the black list of one or more of the known spam servers, based on other users of the same service.
    A search on the web for the blacklist of email server will give you several sites that you can use to determine if your server is on ordinary black lists.

    Send via webmail could pass through completely different servers with different IP numbers explaining why these emails are not be marked as spam.

    Select e-mail to have it displayed in the messages pane.
    Click on "More" and select "view source".
    In the headers of messages that have been classified as spam, you can find the header information of spam by the mail scanner which has classified the message as spam, which may help to establish what is mark as spam.

  • Missing "Go" field emails sent through Thunderbird 38 email address

    I had problems with emails sent through two addresses using different servers set up on Thunderbird do not arrive with their e-mail address of the sender. This happens only for the update for Thunderbird 38. I reinstalled 37 and hopefully, updated using 'Help' "on Thunderbird" and the problem is recurring. I have not tried to install 38 directly to a download. It doesn't happen when I send using GMail in Thunderbird, GMail systems probably insert the correct information.

    You can file a bug for this in Bugzilla, but try safe mode first. Hold the SHIFT key when you start Thunderbird. Just in case where there is an add-on that does not have the update.

  • Flash player installs on several occasions without permission

    I have several times uninstall the Plugin Adobe Flash Player 12 and ActiveX Adobe Flash Player 12. These two settle on several occasions without permission. In Options > Options > advanced > updates, I have the option "check for updates but let me choose whether to install" checked, and it has been like that for weeks. I work from home and I'm on the net all sources of new aggregation day and without flash I don't get bombarded with ads flash constants and sudden noises, loud. However, these two will settle at least twice a day, forcing me to uninstall them manually every time.

    Cannot install plugins in Firefox. Plugins are software, like Firefox itself. They can only be installed by running the Setup program (.exe file).

    Flash Player is required to browse some sites, so it is safer to disable rather than uninstall it. To do so,

    1. Press Ctrl + Shift + A to open the Add-ons Manager.
    2. Click on Plugins on the left.
    3. On the right, the Shockwave Flash value "never enable" to turn it off completely. You can also set it to "Ask to activate" to be invited to start when you browse a site that has Flash content.

    If you insist to get rid of the Flash Player, there is an uninstall program that you can download to get rid of all installed versions. See the following page.
