    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.

    Could not set up Yahoo as default email account

    It’s (Past) Time to Close That Yahoo Account

    Sadly for some of us who have email accounts provided indirectly by Yahoo (the email address isn't "L: [email protected]", but the email account is still managed on Yahoo's servers and reputedly within scope of the hack) 2-step verification isn't an available option.
