How to block or stop hundreds of mail delivery notices that I did not send

how to block hundreds of incoming email delivery notices that I did not send out

It sounds as though someone hacked into your email account and/or the account of one of your friends and stole email addresses to use as sender and recipient for spam messages.
Since the damage is already done so to speak, there isn't a whole lot to do but: do change your email address and send out an email to your friends that the other emails are not from you and not to open or click on anything contained in them.
Unfortunately, this is happening more and more.

  • Getting returned mail messages for emails I did not send

    I've recently started getting returned mail messages for emails I did not send. Why is this happening and how can I stop it?

    That might be tough to do. Is there a rule I can use to help. The mail messages are so varied.
    I'd look at the headers (View -> Message -> Long Headers) to see if there's anything in common, then try to create a rule based on that.
    By the way, welcome to Apple's discussion groups.

  • Your help, please...contacts received cryptic e-mails that I did not send

    Your help, please...
    Some of my contacts have received cryptic e-mails that I did not send.
    How do I "clean" my computer?
    Thank you!

    There's nothing wrong with your Mac. One of your PC friends/co-workers has had his address book compromised and the malware is sending out emails from his address book as if they came from the person who's name is in their address book.

  • HT204370 how do con i get a refund for a movie that i did not whant

    how do con i get a refund for a movie that i did not whant

    If you mean that you bought it by mistake then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) drop-down menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film, click the arrow to the left of it, click the 'Report a Problem' button :
    and then the 'Report a Problem' link on its line :
    and select 'inadvertently purchased' as the problem and fill in the details (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • Yahoo mail sent from iPhone 4 that I did not send

    There have been two messages that show they were sent from my iPhone yahoo account (set up in the regular mailbox, not another application for email) that are links. Other than the link, it only says it is sent from iPhone. The message is not shown in my sent mail (like all other messages I send), and it gets sent to a few random recipients from my contact list (not the entire list).
    Is this a virus? Would it be coming from some application I have on the phone? Please help! I don't want to have my phone sending people random links!
    Thank you

    The problem is with your email provider. I suspect someone has hacked your account because  you use the same password for most of your online work. You should change your password and not use the same password for most of your on-line accounts, most  people are lazy and don't use different passwords because they can't remember them all. You should begin changing your passwords and using a password management tool to help you remember. If you need help choosing one Google "OS X Password Managers" to find some reviews.

  • How do I get my money back for two charges that I did not get?

    I was playing super dynamite fishing on my iPad (on my iPhone now cause no more internet on my way to work) and I tried to purchase an money pack for $7.99. I got an error message saying that the app was from another iTunes account and I had to sign in with that one. I signed in with my sons account, and tried again but got the same message. I signed back into my account, deleted the app and downloaded it again. Now the game has started all over and my credit card has been charged 2x yet I do not have anything but a bill to show for it... Please help. I just want to either get money back or get the in app purchase that I was trying to pay for and did not receive. Thanks in advance.

  • While I was talking via land line to land line with a friend they recieved text message from my iphone that I did not send. How is that possible?

    I repeat.  While I was talking via land line to land line with a friend they began recieving text messages from my Iphone that I did not send.  I am in the middle east and I was calling a land line in Mexico but that should not have mattered.  Moreover, the person I was speaking to told me they had gotten other text messages from me that know I never sent.   I called my phone company (AT&T) and was told the problem was not with the system but with my Iphone.  They suggested someone was using app that mimicked my phone number.   Is such a think possible? 

    In addition to my iphone I have an itouch.  I only just today created an appleID so that I could use this message board so it seems unlikely that the problem is the result of a misused ID

  • Mail Returned That I did not send

    A common spamming technique.  Of course you want to ignore it and perhaps report it as spam.

  • I am getting undeliverable mail from people I did not send mail to.  How can I get this to stop?

    I recently received rejected mail notices from Postmaster that I did not send and are encrytped.  My address is being used, and I do not know these web addresses these emails were being sent to.  How can I resolve this issue? 

    We will need more information to be able to assist you.
    These message yoy are receiving are probably just a particular type of spam.  However it is also possible (unlikely) that your email account is being used to send spam, and that these are the bounce messages.
    To tell the difference, you need to look at the email headers.  Open the message, then go to the View menu and select Message -> All Headers.
    Select the text and post it back here (remembering to obscure your own email address first).
    Cheers,

    If you are not able to find an 'unsubscribe' option, you can always sumbit a request to iTunes Support, as they are the ones who handle your account. They will respond to you via email to follow up until the issue is resolved. I have included a link to this form below.

    deleted previously imported key chain originated from the previous system (why doesn't apple provide a migration for my key chain?). after the deletion mail can receive and send again and dreamweaver starts without hanging.
