My mail account used for sending spams

Hello everyone,
After an unfortunate click I ended on a russian site for which I had no interest. Since then, my mail sends spans to russian addresses. How do I know? I get the mail delivery failures from time to time and it shows an add in russian, similar to the one on the site which I don't know what it is.
How can I stop my mail to send these messages ?
Thx for help.

Are the messages in your Sent Mail?
If not, then they are using your email address as the reply to address for the Spam they are sending out. No way to stop them.
If they are in your sent mail, change all of your email passwords.

My Skype account used to send spam SMS, I was char...

Over the past week, while I was on holiday and off the internet, my Skype account was subject to unauthorised access. The unauthorised user enabled auto-recharge, and used the account to send ~ 600 SMS messages. My Paypal account, and so my credit card, was charged three times.
I used Live Chat tech support, but the scripted nature of the chat felt terrible. I felt like I had to demonstrate that the pattern of use of the account was suspicious when it was obviously spam, with dozens of SMS sent in the same minute. The representative wouldn't, or wasn't allowed to, answer questions like "Is this a known problem with Skype?", and wouldn't/couldn't tell me when the SMS were sent... although the menu options he suggested for viewing the detail of my account history didn't exist in Skype on my Mac. I was also told I wouldn't qualify for a refund for the unauthorised payments because my account had been subject to unauthorised access more than once (although he wouldn't/couldn't give me dates).
He copied & pasted (or typed at 1800wpm) a set of generic security tips, which I follow already, and when asking security questions to reactivate my account, asked several times for details about my credit card - which I don't think I've ever attached directly to my Skype account.
I hated the experience, I don't feel I got answers to any of the questions I asked about Skype security, and I've lost a lot of confidence in Skype as a result.
So apart from anything else I want to know why account features like SMS sending or recharge can't be disabled when it looks like accounts are being used for spam? How about email confirmation of actions like enabling auto-refresh? If the amount spent on my account goes from £4 in 12 months to £34.50 in 6 days, why is that not flagged somehow?
Look after yourselves people, because it feels like maybe Skype won't be looking out for you!

Hi there,
I just got the same issue, seems there is a heavy security problem with our Skype accounts. In two days time, 185 sms were sent using my account, fyi, here are some of them:

I sent a complaint to Skype today, I guess there's little hope on a refund... changed my password and stopped to automatic recharge, we'll see what happens in the following days.

Hello Sue,
I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!

Have you tried logging out of your account on your iPod by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then logging back in to see if that 'refreshes' the account on it and if it then works ?

My Iphone contact list was used to send Spam

My yahoo e-mail was recently used to send Spam to everyone in my Iphone conact list that has an e-mail address associated with it. I do not use my yahoo account on a PC just on my Iphone. My phone contact list is not synced to a PC and I don't send emails from my personal email to co-workers and they recieved the Spam from my Yahoo account. Has the Iphone finally been hacked? How can I prevent it.I will change my Passwords but how did it send from my Iphone contact list. The e-mail that was sent is not in my sent or deleted folder. was sent on Friday at 11:15 at night while I was asleep and phone was charging.

It was your Yahoo email account that was hacked, which is why the spam was sent from your account, or more lilely spoofed to appear to be from your account (actually sent from the spammer's email). This is common with Yahoo email which has been easily hacked. If you ever sent any emails to the people who received the spam, their email address's are easily found by the hackers.
As far as your Contact list on your iPhone, the only way it can be hacked into is if the phone was ever jailbroken. OTOH, if you sync your contacts with social media like Fakebook and Twits, your contacts are long in the wild.

How to stop receiving from a mail account but still send from that account

Hi
I was wondering if anyone knew how set up a mail account that will send but not recieve. Basically, I would like it to stop going to the server and grabbing emails from this account, but I want to be able to send emails from this account. Is this possible??
Thanks!

Welcome to the Discussions.
Very possible and very easy to configure. First, in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced deselect to include when automatically checking for new messages. Second, click on Mailbox in the menubar, choose Online Status, and click to take this account Offline. An account that is Offline can still be used to Send.
These two steps, together, will accomplish what you need.

I recently updated to Mavericks and now all my e-mail accounts won't send

I recently updated to Mavericks and now all my e-mail accounts won't send. They all receive ok but when I send I get a message "sender address rejected by server" and " Authentification required" The passwords are still intact

Check the Mail settings for your account, especially the SMTP (outgoing) address, type of authentication, and entry of the proper email username and password. You can do this when you select the account then under the outgoing mail server use the dropdown menu to select the Edit option. Select your outgoing configuration in the list. Check the settings below, then click on the Advanced tab and check those settings.
If all is OK, then I suggest your reinstall Mavericks:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.

How to set up two POP e-mail accounts using the same POP and SMTP servers

I have an e-mail address based on a domain I purchased which is based on my company name. Now retired, I have purchased a new domain with a simpler, personalised name. My original e-mail account uses the incoming (POP3) and outgoing (SMTP) mail servers operated by my ISP; mail.btinternet.com.
I have set up a new account on my PC in Microsoft Outlook, and have successfully sent and received emails using the new e-mail address taken from my new domain name.
I have now tried to mirror this on my iPhone, but every time I enter all the relevant data for the new e-mail address, user name, password, mail servers etc., and then press 'save', I get a pop-up which says: "xxxx" is Already Added This POP account has already been added to your iPhone. ("xxxx" is the name given to my original e-mail account). Nowhere have I input "xxxx" in the course of setting up the new account.
I need both accounts operational during an extended switch-over period as I alert everyone to the e-mail change over. Can anyone suggest a solution to this problem?

What targeting the Mail.app preference file, do the following:
Quit the Mail.app first and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail. Copy the Mail folder and place the copy on the Desktop for backup purposes.
Using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.mail.plist. Move the com.apple.mail.plist file to the Desktop.
Note: Moving the com.apple.mail.plist file out of the Preferences folder will require re-entering all email account information when re-launching Mail.
The only exception to this is if you have a .Mac account which will be recreated automatically and/or if you created an email account as part of the computer setup assistant when first turning on the computer when new.
Launch Mail and decline any prompt to import mailboxes. After re-entering all email account information, the Mail.app should rediscover the existing account named folders and mailbox files at Home > Library > Mail.
After confirming all mailboxes were successfully rediscovered, you can delete the copy of the Mail folder and old com.apple.mail.plist file from the Desktop.
Test if this resolves the problem.

What does default account use for in Windows 10???

MR B
I had understood that it is there and has been since windows 7, but rather I was asking what specifically do you want to know about the default account. I suspect you would be better served by Googling it as there are 264,000,000 hits on the subject.
