Step 1: Add a new email address

• Sign in to your
  Microsoft account.
• Select Your info at the top of the page.
• Select Manage your sign-in email
  
  
• You may be prompted to enter a code we send to the email address or phone number listed in your account as security information. This lets us know the request is coming from you.
  
• Select either Add email
• If you selected Add email, follow these steps.

• If you want to create a new email address to use, select Create a new email address and add it as an alias, and then follow the instructions.
  
• If you have a non-Microsoft email address (such as an @gmail.com or
  @yahoo.com email address) that you want to use, select Add an existing email address as a Microsoft account alias, and then click
  Add alias.
  • When you add an existing email address, you'll be required to verify that you own that account. To the right of the alias you added, click
    Verify, and we'll send a message to that email address to get confirmation.
    
  • When you receive the verification email, click the link provided to verify that you own the account.
  • Note The email address that you enter can't already be in use as a Microsoft account alias.

Step 2: Set the new email address as your primary alias

After you add the new email address, you need to set it as your primary alias to have it displayed when you sign in to all devices and services. Here's how:

On the Manage your account aliases page, select Make primary under the email address you want as primary under
Account alias.

Note Only email addresses can be used as primary aliases.

Step 3: Remove the old email address you no longer want to use

To remove an email address you no longer use, select Remove next to that alias on the
Manage your account aliases page, and then follow the instructions provided.

Note It can take up to 48 hours for the change to your email address to be implemented across all Microsoft services.

Let us know the results.

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.
