BT access to non BT email addresses

My wife and I both received an email purporting to be from "BT Yahoo! My Account Services" telling us that our BT internet passwords had been changed about 2am. Sure enough when I logged on this morning my password was not working so i had to go through the security questions and set a new password.
The odd thing was that the initial email at 02:10 was sent to my business account (a website provided by fasthosts). A second email (at 02:15) was sent from noreply at btinternet.com. This second email was only sent to my btinternet email address.
Resetting the passsword worked fine and I got a second email from both noreply at btinternet.com and BT Yahoo! My Account Services telling me that the password had been changed again.
Once again the email from BT Yahoo! was (according to Outlook) sent to my business email account with fasthosts as well as my BT internet account . Similarilly my wifes warning came copied to her NHS email address. I phoned BT help and was assured that the email was genuinely from them. the lady would not confirm or deny that any changes had been made to my password at 2am for security reasons..
Does anyone have any idea how BT could have got access to these other email addresses?

Hi. Welcome to the forums.
The thing to check is the email headers (if you need help on this, drop a reply back). Rather than post the info here which may include some personal info, you can always send me the details in a Forum Private Message and I'll look.
The email from "noreply" etc, doesn't seem correct as the real password change does say "BT Yahoo! My ...". However scammers will know this and send emails pretending to be service type emails in the hope that people will click on embedded links to a non BTinternet website, hence passing on details like the password.
It seems strange that you are getting two emails.
Do you by any chance have any forwarding/copying setup from the BTinternet accounts to your other accounts ? The email receipt may not be the exact time the password was altered, but should be within a relatively short period of time.
It is possible that your account may have been hacked somehow (e.g. phish attempt - have you responded to a "security" type email pretending to come from BT?) - which can lead to the password being altered by the miscreant.
Do you store any contact information within the webmail system, for example your business email address ?

How man I change my Apple ID? I no longer have access to the old email address

To set up devices such as iCloud I'm needing to verify an email sent to my acct, however I can no longer access that email address, so I need to change the email address to my current email address. How can I do this -from my iPhone? Please please!!

You need to create another non-Apple email address - a free one from GMail would do - and then go to http://appleid.apple.com and change it there.

HT202667 I am ditching my non-Apple email address and want to stop using it. My husband's ID is his icloud email, why can't mine be?

I don't want to run two email addresses and want to use my icloud email address for all correspondence. Itunes keeps sending me emails to my old address and it won't let me change my Apple ID to my icloud address. My husband's is using his without any issues. Is there a way round this?

I'm afraid not. While people who started with iTools or MobileMe had their @mac.com/@me.com (and now @icloud.com) address as the ID from the start, and people who open a new Apple ID and iCloud account at the same time from the iCloud preference pane can choose to make the @icloud.com address the ID, if it's the case that your ID is a non-Apple email address you can change it to another non-Apple email address but you cannot change it to your @icloud.com address.
You can of course set up forwarding from the ID address to the @icloud.com address so that you only have to look in one place. However you should be aware that if the setup means that you can only be contacted by Apple at the @icloud.com address, then if you have a problem such as a forgotten password or a corrupted account, Apple can only contact you at an address you cannot access so it's essential to have a 'rescue address'.

I want to sign out of current apple id and into another one but I no longer have access to my current email address so I cannot log out

I want to sign out of current apple id and into another one that I own but I no longer have access to my current email address so I cannot log out (It is with an internet provider who I have just unsubscribed with) This is on an iPhone 5S, on iOS 8.1.

That email address is still a valid Apple ID. If you do not remember the passcode, sign onto Manage your Apple ID (Apple - My Apple ID) with that email address, and then click on Reset Password. You will be asked to answer your Security Questions in order to reset the password. If you do not remember the answers to your Security Questions, contact Apple Support to reset them for you:

Can't remember my security questions and can't access my back up email address is there a way of getting the information sent to another email?

Can't remember my security questions and can't access my back up email address is there a way of getting the information sent to another email?

No. You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

I can't send with non-icloud email address

I'm on OS X 10.9.1, and can't send emails using a non-icloud/mac email address, in Mail. I can recieve emails addressed to my non-mac email address.
I've had this problem for several years, and there didn't seem to be a solution to start with. I was hoping the issue might have been fixed by now, but I still haven't been able to find a way to configure Mail so that it will work.
This is very annoying, because the non-mac email address matches my website and my email signature, so it is irritating that I don't look professional when sending or replying to emails for my business. It also makes automatically organising emails into mail boxes (work and personal) impossible.
In preferences > accounts > account info, I have both addresses separated by a comma. I can't see anywhere else I can put it.
I'd be very grateful for any wisdom on this!

If you migrated from MobileMe, try deleting the e-mail account in your mail preferences and adding it back again. You will only be required to enter your password and the ID, the setup should add the correct settings and hopefully this will resolve your problem.

I'm trying to access my family pack email addresses to correct before moving over to icloud. I can't find how to access it. Can someone help me?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Connect it to iTunes with a USB cable and update it from the iTunes application.
I have asked for your email address to be edited out. Posting your address in an open thread is a sure way to be bombarded by unwanted email, remember it will be here long after you have resolved your problem, for automated detection software to find.
If you want people to contact you, enable others to see your email address in your profile.

Verifying non BT email address

Hi.
I'm sure this answer is posted somewhere already but .....
I am trying to verify a non-BT email address for sending emails. It keeps telling me an email has been sent to me but it never arrives. I have double checked (many times) the spelling is correct and also looked in the spam.
Incidentally - this is my own domain (i.e. [email protected]) is this the problem?
Thanks in advance

Its like having a phone that can only receive call what's the point in that !
Hi. Welcome to the forums.
Have a look at my shortcuts (link below), option 0e.
Are you getting any error messages ? What sort of settings are you using ? What was your previous ISP, and how was the non ISP email setup on Outlook ?
Unless you do have the capability of using the 3rd party smtp service with your email address (not always available, depending on the service), then you need to go through address verification, and make sure things like smtp authentication is set - as well as making sure the smtp settings in Outlook are correct.

Cannot access 2 of 3 email address lists. Why?

This just occurred. The same address list comes up with all 3 email addresses I have . Even when I exit & turn off my computer & go back to email I still cannot get to my 2 other address lists. For example: When in email 1, or 2, , email 3's address is shown. I email 3 it is okay. Also, I have to use tools to get the address list and it fills the screen - so I cannot click to get the address onto my email address line because my email is covered by the address screen. Frustrating.
Previously I could go to "contacts" which is now gone, and click. The address list would come up & I could drag the address to my email. Now I cannot do that.
So I cannot access 2 of 3 email address lists, cannot click on an address to put on my email to send. So how do I fix this.? I have 100's of email addresses I access. I am NOT a computer wiz so please help and if you can, please make it simple as you can!
Thanks, Gail

are you talking about the contacts sidebar that toggles on and off with the F9 key?

I had to set up a new email ID, because I no longer had access to my old email address and Adobe was forcing me to change password, but I could not access the verification email. Now I cannot read my books under my new ID, even though I got Adobe support

If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

How to reactive my iphone 5s iCloud account however it's signed on to a non existent email address which i can't log on to verify password.

If you want to use another Apple I.D, you can go to SETTINGS - STORE. Click on the Apple I.D; select Sign out and Sign in with a valid Apple I.D.
If you want to change the password of an existing Apple I.D. you need to sign in to the account first which apparently you can't as the "password" is incorrect. Here is what you can do to change the password.
Go to https://appleid.apple.com
Login with the Apple I.D. and you will see these 2 option.
Select your authentication method.
Email authentication: To access your information, we will send an email to the address(es) on file for you.
Answer security questions: To access your information, you will answer the security question(s) provided when you originally created your Apple ID.
Proceed with the one that's easy for you.

Remote Web Access using "UPN" or Email address

Hi there,
I noticed this thread talks about the thing I would love to have.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/4192a34b-d399-4aa4-8ee2-dc6a327cb952/server-error-in-remote-application-using-upn-to-log-on?forum=smallbusinessserver
I understand the SBS is designed for smaller, non-it specific, however most of the places that you do install are also limited so telling the when you use the RWA you use the "username" but when you log into Office365, you use your email address,
it would be nice to have them all the same.
I see that from here you are able to modify the RDWeb.
http://msfreaks.wordpress.com/2013/12/29/step-by-step-customizing-rd-web-access-2012-r2/
But I understand that the Essentials is an out of the box solution, so maybe nobody has wanted to try or to fix.
The first post mentions about a "Error" with RWA in 2011 and they still haven't found something for this? As they did mention about looking into it, however, no solution, so I can't be the only person asking for this feature of consistency,
as I know there are other out there.
Does anyone have any suggestion on how to enable this? I swear that my Server Essentials 2012 this worked, as I tested it, so not sure what happen in R2.
Kevin

Hi Susan,
Thanks for the post.
Maybe I am the only person out there... I have a few of these in the field, and I hate telling people that you user your "Username" for RWA, but you use your Email address for Office365...
Not exactly what I was hoping for, as I'm sure that server 2012 allowed this functionality. Because it was one of the first things I tested when
I installed Server 2012-E, mainly because it's
broke in SBS 2011. I just wish it was more consistent that's all, especially when you are using Office365.
