Email to account that doesn't exist delivered

We don't have [email protected] user, but today we received a virus email addressed to that account.
How can this happen and what can I do to prevent?

Hi Dennis,
According to your description, it seems that an email spoofing happened in your Exchange environment. Please check whether an Edge server or
Forefront Online Protection for Exchange(FOPE) is deployed in your
domain. Also make sure a SPF(Sender Policy Framework) record is configured
while configuring and using the Forefront Online Protection for Exchange (FOPE) service.
Sender Policy Framework is a record that is used to help prevent email spoofing. It allows you to specify all of the IP addresses that you would send mail from in one simple TXT record, and to tell the receiving server to only allow the outbound
servers you listed.
For more information about how SPF records work with the FOPE service and to view additional SPF record examples, see the section titled
SPF Record Settings in
Best Practices for Configuring FOPE.

ICloud has my old Apple ID and is prompting for a password, but I want to put in the new id, I can't because it is grey and there is no edit option. I'm prompted for a password to an account that doesn't exist

iCloud has my old Apple ID and is prompting for a password, but I want to put in the new id, I can't because it is grey and there is no edit option. I'm prompted for a password to an account that doesn't exist. Anyone know what I can do to fix this or why this is happening.? I had no issue putting in my new Apple ID everywhere else, I could sign out of the old and inactive account and then sign back in using my new and proper one. However, after the update to 7.3 it did a whole welcome to yr iPad and a set up thing and it went to set up iCloud and had my old Apple ID in grey where I can't change or edit it, it wants the password, when I put in the old password, it say yr Apple ID is incorrect but yet it won't let me change it??????? Anyone???

Sign out and back into your apple id from Settings>iTunes and App stores>(Your apple ID)>Sign Out and then sign in again with the new address. Close app store from running in the background (or restart the phone if your unsure how to do this). If when trying to update any apps they are still asking for the old apple ID, delete and re-install those apps.

Itunes authorization for an account that doesn't exist?

My new MacBook is asking for an Itunes store authorization for a particular song under an account name that doesn't exist. My apple ID is an old e-mail address; I've already successfully authorized the computer to play songs from that account, into which I can log in with no difficultly. The account name that is supposedly attached to this song is a newer e-mail address (maybe I unsuccessfully tried to change the Apple ID at some point?), but when I click on "forgot password" in the authorization window, it says that the account for which it had prompted me to authorize doesn't exist. Suggestions?

Deleting an iCloud account that doesn't exist

I am trying to delete my iCloud account from my iPhone 4S that is synced with my old iTunes email account that is no longer active. The problem is that it asks for the password in order to delete it, but it does not accept any password because the account is no longer valid. Even when trying to look up the old account or password through the "Forgot ID or Password" link, it says it cannot verify the username, even after I have put in all my old information.
I can log into iCloud.com on a desktop using the new username, but I can't change it to the new one on my iPhone 4S without having a password, which doesn't exist. So I am stuck.
Any ideas?

I'm having a similar issue right now and I'm about to pull out my hair. I've talked to two Apple support guys, neither of which have helped me AT ALL. They only told me to do what I have already done, so I'm not sure how well they listened to me, but they certainly didn't help me (no offense, Apple support).
I have done the "Erase All" option. When I go through the first steps - choosing language, country, wi-fi network, etc., it gets to a screen where it asks whether you want to restore from icloud, restore from itunes, or set your phone up as a new device. I have tried all three. But I want to restore from iCloud with my current Apple ID, not my old one that apparently doesn't exist anymore (so stop asking for it!).
So.. when I restore from iCloud, it lets me type in my current iCloud Apple ID... great, right?! However, once it gets to the menu (all of my stuff shows up, great again!) and I go into Settings > iCloud. it shows my OLD freakin' Apple ID and it asks for my password (which doesn't work). Why is it defaulting to my old, non-existent Apple ID even though I set it up to restore from my current one?! Same problem you're having. And yes, it still says the same thing at the bottom - that I can't delete this iCloud account because my iphone is being restored. But I can't figure out what the heck is still downloading - by now I have deleted all my apps, my music is all there and fully downloaded... so it must be my pictures. None of my pictures are showing up in my album even though it says that 652 pictures are downloading (it has been two days and not one picture has 'downloaded'). So if it's my pictures that are the problem, fine, although I'm not sure how to get around that. I have read about 73 other threads related to that issue with no resolution thus far. So basically I'm stuck.
I am tempted to hit the Stop Restore button, but I don't want to lose those 652 pictures that are supposedly "downloading." I don't know if I'll lose them, but I'm too scared to find out.
I just don't know what to do. And the nearest Apple store to me is 150+ miles away

Purchased songs on an account that doesn't exist.

I'm trying to transfer songs from iPod to iTunes but there's a few songs that aren't transferring over. When I click them to authorize the "ID" block is auto populated. I click on my "forgot password" it opens up a browser and takes me to a page where I can recover my password. However I receive a error "User ID isn't valid". How do I find out what account that song was purchased on? I thought the auto populate did that. If so how come a song was purchased from a user ID doesn't exist?

If you changed your AppleID, it will still show the old one (as that is embedded in the song file) but you must change it to the new one when you enter it to authorize the computer.
As an example....
You create an account with the ID of [email protected]
When you purchase a song, this will be embedded in the file so when you try to play it, it will autopopulate the ID field.
Later you move and change the ID to [email protected]
When you try to play a song, it will pop up with [email protected]
You need to change it to [email protected] and it will work.
The error you received is because the AppleID was changed so the old one does not exist, even though it shows up on the songs.
If you go here -> https://iforgot.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/DSiForgot.woa/19/wo/E914DBZn8dX7zoi gjCkLpM/0.11.3.0.0.1
you can find out the correct/current AppleID for the old songs.

Asks for a password on a account that doesn't exist

Hi there, I hope someone can help me with this problem.
Mail has a popup asking me to enter a password for a gmail account that is trying to connect to a smtp.mountaincable.net. I have deleted all the accounts from mail and went through keychain and deleted all the smtp and pop email accounts but this popup still persists. How can I remove this popup and delete this email account for good?
I setup mail with 3 email accounts, 2 @gmail and 1 @mountaincable.net. Somehow one of the gmail accounts has attempted to connect to smtp.mountaincable.net. I don't use this gmail account anymore.
I have searched this forum and seen others who have had similar issues but nothing has been able to resolve this issue for me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How to delete an icloud account that doesn't exist

How do I delete the icloud account off my phone because it doesn't exist anymore and i don't remember the password.

Tap Settings > iCloud then swipe down then tap: Delete Account

How do I delete an account to update to new Apple ID email if it wants the old password to an account that doesn't exist so it says incorrect. I can't move forward.

I Need to delete an old iCloud account in order to update to my new Apple ID email but in order to delete the old account I need the old account to verify and it won't bc it no longer exists. Please help

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Prompting password for account that doesn't exist...

Hi guys! My Mail doesn't prompt for passwords whenever I check for my Mail from other providers (Gmail, Yahoo! Mail, etc.). However, my Mail thinks that I have a MobileMe mail account, which I do not. Thus, it always prompts me for a password to that non-existent me.com account. This is pretty annoying. Does anybody know what's going on? Thanks!

How do I reset the password of an old login with an email account that no longer exists?

Years ago, I bought songs in the iTunes store with an old email account that no longer exists. I type my answers to the security questions, but the answers aren't working for some reason. So neither of the normal ways to reset a password. Is there a way to be able to figure out or change the password so that I can listen to this music once again?

If you can't get it reset it http://iforgot.apple.com
then you will need to contact Support in your country to try and get access to the account (they can also reset your questions) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
If you do get access you can then change the primary email address on it e.g. via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes ot via http://appleid.apple.com

Have you tried changing the admin password in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Password ??
The Apple ID that is associated with your admin password is noted there.

How do I update apps under an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and have forgotten the password?

I want to update some apps on my iphone but can't because it's asking for an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and I have forgotten the password for it!
Help!!!

The apple id login is never deleted. The emaill address itself can be disabled or not in use any longer. The apple id login will still be available to you. If you will go to the website My Apple Id
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
and use the listed apple id login that your apps are asking for to update - once you have changed the password at the lsted website you then will be able to update using the old apple id once you have logged into the device using the old apple id and password.
Good luck.

Aloha! I bought an iPhone 5 sprint via ebay, it has an iCloud id that was used to previous user. I don't have any contact with the previous user. I want to delete that email or id account that is now existing in my cell phone.

Again, you wasted your money. You can ignore raymond73's post, as you won't be able to turn off Find My Phone or delete the iCloud account associated with this phone, without knowing that info.
I don't know how clearer I can be.

Ive recently updated my new email address with my apple ID but now my iphone and ipad dont recognise these and wont allow me to edit or change them without signing in with my old details to an account that no longer exists, can this be fixed? thanks

Go to setting on the devices and change the information
Settings
iTunes and App Store
Account
(Change account)
Also settings
Mail, contacts, calendars
Account
(Change account)
Same for everything else that uses your email address. Facebook, Twitter, iCloud, on and on.
