Would it help if you changed your password?

hi there, i already change password, but i am receiving email by my same enail address in SPAM folder.

 

[Kaktussoft]

It's just spam. People don't block their own address. Some mass spam mail programs send mail to [email protected] and use [email protected] as fake sent from address

 

[tester2]

so you mean he use outlook express to send me emails in my same email addres.

please let me know some more details, is it possible to send email by some one in my same email address.

so do i have to worry about this situation or no need to worry about this, because i am getting emails in my SPAM FOLDER only by my email address.

i already change my strong password. but still worry about this situation. Please let me know.

thanks.

Hi tester2,

I don't know if this explains your problem as it is not very clear to me, if I send an email from Gmail directly, it appears in my Windows Live Mail Inbox.

It is very easy to spoof a 'sent from' email address. The email wasn't actually sent from your account. Your account is safe You might be able to forward the email to yahoo, they can probably tell who the actual sender is.

hi gys thanks for your replies,

i notice when i reply to other peoples then i have to enter a string of characters or capichono like "4WhLm" etc, then i can send the email successfully.

so the same way how i can do this string capichono, the sender to me has to type a string "K8hPq" etc, so what i have to do, for asking his to type string before he send me an email.

please let me know this procedure, where i have to go to do in my email account settings.

thanks

Captcha? You have to do that when sending replies to emails? Hmmm, that is odd. I don't know why that is, or how to use it

A Guy

EDIT: In searching I see that new accounts have to fill in the Captcha until Yahoo is convinced you are not a spammer/bot. With established accounts, it seems to be when they have reports of unusual activity from an account. Perhaps in your case, what "appears" to come from your account.

You might want to contact support, you shouldn't have to fill out a Captcha every time you email.

As I stated in my last post, that is not something you set up. That is something Yahoo is doing. A Guy

It would be interesting to see the message source and see it it had a DKIM Signature. I doubt it but if it does, it's probably forged. The source will also show the server routing for the message.

Here's an example of a message source from an email I received from SF.

hi guys, i am in trouble, i call to yahoo, they could not help me.

One bad person sending emails like this below from last 6 months, every day 25 to 50 emails, he is generating emails by his system and send it to me every day, so i am toired to put every day 50 email in my BLOCKER list, and that YAHOO BLOCKER never work for my, because i put in BLOCKER still by that email id i get emails in my email account.

for example "System [email protected]" this id already in my BLOCKER list, but still i will get emails in my account by this id.

It looks like a spoofed return. There's not a lot that can be done since the messages appear to be coming from Romania. I don't use Yahoo mail so I don't know if you can setup a message rule. You might look into that. See if there's a way of putting your <email address> in a rule that moves the message to the junk or delete folder when the FROM address is you.

 

[tester2]

i did the FILTERS & I CREATE many FILTERS that also not stoping or not sending to TRASH folder.

So is there any program i need to install in my pc, to stop this perticular persons emails.

thanks

Did you do what I suggested? That is to block/delete/ignore mail (whatever Yay-hoo allows) with a FROM address that contains YOUR email address. The only alternative I know would be to put everyone you know on a White List and block everything else.

That's one of the problems with using the free email servers--They have little or no filtering and could care less. Their objective is to increase advertising income and they don't care where it comes from.

I have an un-published (not used anywhere) Live Mail account just so I can log into certain Microsoft sites and I get daily Junk mail on that account.
