Hello,

My email addresse has been “hacked” or something.

I had this email address: info@mysite.com and I have been receiving 100s of junk mail. and the mail ALWAYS originate from info@mysite.com to info@mysite.com

That looks like that I am sending emails to myself.

I then deleted the email address and I am using a different one. But I am still receiving junk mails originating from info@mysite.com.

What do I, please?

Check with your domain host and let them know what’s going on.
If it’s a GoDaddy account…check and see if your “Catch-all” account is turned on. This allows people to send you email no matter what prefix they use. If it’s on…turn it off!

If that isn’t it, contact the company that hosts your domain and email.

John.

Have you checked the email header to see where the email is actually coming from? It is quite easy to display any name so it might not actually be coming through your accout but from somewhere else. There is little you can do about this type of thing except add that address to your blocked list.
