Thundergod Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Change your e-mail's password, I got a spam mail from your mail address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'll bump this till he reads it T.D. You might PM him as well....... I'm sure you did though....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 Actually I didn't... and it would be a good idea for anyone to do just that (PM him about it). I think I can't send him PM anymore... I'm not on his friend list. :-" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Spam from an email address? Oh dear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 Most of the time it's fixed by changing your password... that happens a lot with hotmail and such accounts. Once you change the password everyone stops receiving mails from you with strange stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'll PM the ChanMan T.D. Didn't go through....He'll find this thread................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanMan Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Thanks, and sorry TG. Password has been changed from one that was moderately secure (HA!) to one with strong security. No virii have been detected in today's scans, so it looks like a basic open relay issue. Hotmail works great and everybody loves it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Just because it SAYS it came from ChanMan doesnt mean it actually CAME from ChanMan's email. The spammers know how to cloak their nefarious sendings with an apparent 'from' address they glean from your own address book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
