I received an email with my personal email name. When clicked on it did show a different email address. It was an email stating it was from me. The list of recipients were several that were taken directly from my address'. i.e., they sent an email out that looked like it was from me to my personal contacts. How can this be? Can someone get into my thunderbird email accounts and steal my contacts?

Please let me know what to do? Is there anyone I can report this to?

I've created a filter, but I don't know what else to do.

PLEASE HELP!!!

Thank you!

Ive received an automated email from Mozilla address to someone else, but at my email address. Ive had no end of problems with spam suddenly appearing in my inbox and spam box. I've changed the password to the account, but fear someone could be using my email address. Any help on this subject?

Seriously, that information isn't very useful.

This isn't anymore useful either.

You may start your own thread for your problem. Please provide more detailed information then. Beyond changing your account password, make sure it is a strong password and you don't use it for any other accounts. Also make sure your machine is free of malware.
