Unauthorized Emails from my account?

It is more than likely that your email account was hacked, either by a virus sniffing your password, or just simply hacked.

Either way, change your password on your email account. Unfortunately the damage by already be done. They already have your contact list and your email address associated with that contact list. There is nothing stopping them from sending out emails using their own SMTP servers to everyone on your contact list and claiming the emails are from your email address. They don't actually have to have access to your yahoo account or even any yahoo server to send emails to people that come from your address.

 

Emails not downloading to Windows10Mail from yahoo account...as of 2 days ago.

Two days ago, my Windows 10 Mail program stopped receiving emails from my yahoo mail account. I had been receiving all of my emails just fine up 'til then. I made no changes to any settings. They just stopped coming through. When I check at yahoomail.com,
my emails are there for the past two days...they just don't come to the Windows 10 Mail program. Any ideas?

Thanks.
