I got an email from my wife's yahoo mail accoun and it was obscene but I couldn't really tell if it was something my wife would write me or not. So I just responded with an "Ok...". She checked her mail this morning and was so confused. I asked her about the email and she said she did not send that email to me. In fact, she couldn't have because the date and time that it was sent, we were together most the day and not even near a computer. Anyway, I was just curious if this has happened to anyone else. Thanks.

You know I got something like that too.

It was from someone named Tracy and the subject was spring water.

Not that problem.

I do tend to get e-mails as late as a week after being sent, though.

So far I haven't had a problem with hacking but I do get mails 3-4 days late on a regular basis.

My wife's email at yahoo has definatley been tampered with. Is it possible that someone was able to get thru my Linksys router to her machine and somehow was able to get her username and password to her yahoo mail account. It seems unlikely. I'm hoping someone was able to get her info from the outside and not the inside(of my LAN). Thanks for your responses.
