Sounds like what you have, hacking accounts and sending spam. From the end of
may and was still on-going.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

How do you know they broke into your account to send spam as
opposed to simply spoofing your email address in the sender
field? [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I know two people that had their Yahoo accounts broken into in February.
I
looked at the headers, it wasn't spoofing. One of the accounts was a computer
professional, and he confirmed that his account was broken into. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Standard operating procedure for Yahoo to
give access to your account to other people.
With the new disastrous sounding policy,
inactive accounts will be reissued after a
year, which presumably means that the new c
owner of the ID will get the former owner's
incoming email (password resets, old
subscriptions etc).
Unfortunately I lost access to my old yahoo
account, so it's a matter of time before
yahoo sells me out to an identity thief.
I actually can't believe a company could act
so irresponsibly, but I guess they are
desperate.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
