Who gave YAHOO permission to delete a particularly personal email?

Communications with my attorney both prior to and after the email in question still exist, as does the subject line of the email.





The entire text has been deleted -something impossible for me to do after it's been mailed. Only Yahoo themselves could take such action. You've illegally tampered with my personal content!





I darn well better get an answer!!
Who gave YAHOO permission to delete a particularly personal email?
Yahoo owns your email. They can open, read, and delete your email and its contents without permission. They cannot however disclose some of the information held inside it with a 3rd party. If you want an email were nobody except you would have legal access to it, buy your own website/server and host your email on that.

If you knew your significant other's personal email password, would you check it once in a while?

A while back my girl gave it to me to check something for her. This was a while back but she hasn't changed it (she doesn't check her email often). We met online. I came across old letters from previous online dating members in her inbox. I gave in a read some. I feel pretty bad about it.





She has spoken online with a few but they're short responses. Only one email mentioned that she's dating someone. That's good news. Last couple of weeks there's been almost no email exchanges with dudes from dating sites that I know of.





I'm tempted to write pretending to be someone else. No way. That's pretty lame, I know. But tempting.





I need to ask her to change her password or I'm gonna become obsessed on trying to bust her...maybe finding something I don't want to find. What would you do? Serious adult answers please. Thanks.
If you knew your significant other's personal email password, would you check it once in a while?
I would never give anyone my email password. I think you should talk to her. Just be completely honest and say something like.."you know how you gave me your email password to check stuff awhile ago..well i kinda couldn't help looking in there ok. I am really sorry. I just feel like I want to keep looking and I know its nosy but at the same time its just human curiousity. Please can you change your password cos i really don't want to invade your privacy. I do feel a bit insecure about some stuff i saw..." etc. You get the idea.


Now if i were her and I gave you my password I would not be overly freaked that you had looked in there altho I wouldn't like that you had done it again. It is a privacy invasion(I would do exactly the same thing as you had done..hey!) But if you are honest hopefully you can get your fears resolved and improve communication with her. Only you know the best way to do that i guess.
Reply:you need to come clean because you have trust issues and it doesn't sound like she's given you any reason to be snooping around. let her decide whether or not to change it after you tell her what you've been doing. if i was her, i'd change it unbeknownst to you; you violated her trust. and if she was testing you....you failed.
Reply:You are right. Ask her to change her password and the situation will be fixed.
Reply:I will definitely peek. That's why I my password is secret.
Reply:i would suck it up and not check it!!!


thats an invasion of privacy





would you like it if she is checking your email all the time without even knowing!!!





i would hate it, so i wouldnt do it to someone else!!!





Golden rule:


treat others as you would like to be treated!!!








im not even an adult


but im as mature as one!!! so ha!
Reply:Yes, I did. While I was pregnant with BOTH of my kids, my husband has a nasty porn problem, and ignored me completely. If he had paid attention to me, I wouldn't have suspected him, but I did. I still know his password(s) and still check *very* infrequently, but he also scans the disgusting porn sites *very* infrequently. Men are stupid--they should change their passwords...
Reply:I still do do this lol. How naughty of me. However my partner is away for four weeks at a time, so i just check it for him, delete anything that looks like junk and pass on anything important for him. I dont go snooping though id feel like i had no trust for him. It would be oh so tempting to catch them out doing something they shouldnt be though wouldnt it?


I wouldnt write her an email pretending to be someone else. After all, what if she did reply and you didnt like the response? You've just set yourself up for trouble.


Perhaps you could mention to her, apparently there have been a lot of email hackers lately, you might want to change your password so they dont hack you, i changed mine. That way it doesnt sound like you've just been in her account. Its really not a big deal though, you just need to stop yourself from looking in there. Although its tempting just have some self control and tell yourself that its not yours to look at.
Reply:I confess I used to do this. I stopped when I became more confident in our relationship. My excuse is he had broken my heart once before. What is yours? There has to be a reason you don't trust her. You need to work on that first. Changing her password isn't going to make this feeling go away.





Good luck.

Getting a Divorce, wife hacked into my personal email account and now wants to use it in cournt and blackmail.?

2 part question: getting a divorce and wife hacked into my email account and is using this as a barging chip. Is this legal? can she do this? Can I counter claim her hacking to make it inadmissible in court?


Second part, she has recorded our conversations between her and myself with out my knowledge. Is that usable in court and legal? What can I do to stop that?

holy crap. how did your wife hack into your email?!?!????
Reply:Tell her I'm proud of her!
Reply:both sound totally legal to me. what do you have to hide
Reply:Depends if you have children and if what you said can prove that you're an unfit parent. She'll take full custody. CCCS don't give a crap.
Reply:My ex-boyfriend was married to a woman in GA and while we were dating she did the same thing to him. She hacked his account and printed off a bunch of Ebay receipts to try and get her child support raised and when the courts found out she got into his email they would not allow her to use the information in court.





His attorney informed him that hacking into email is looked upon the same way as opening anothers mail. What she has done is illegal in some states but you would have to speak to an attorney to know for sure. I hope everything works out for you!
Reply:As far as your email goes, depending on the judge he may not use them because they are hear say. There really isn't anyway to prove who wrote those emails and there are way too many possibilities.





But as far as the recordings go. The law states that only one party has to know about the recording. My advice either start recording the conversations yourself to use against her and don't say or do anything that can look bad on yourself.
Reply:I doubt your wife ''Hacked" into your e-mail. I bet she just typed the password you gave her, and in that case, your got nothing on her.





Maybe you shouldn't be putting things on the internet that can screw you over like that.
Reply:I think thats illegal





Why arent u consulting with your attorney?






Reply:Ask your attorney, but using your e-mail as a bargaining chip is legitimate to my knowledge. My ex-wife's attorney is known to commonly do much more to get bargaining chips, from videotaping people having affairs to setting them up by paying a woman to go up and talk to them at a bar while being videotaped.





Second part varies from state to state. It would be legal and admissible where I live, and you can look it up for MO as easily as I can. In many states, as long as one person (her) consents to the recording, it is legal. In other states, both have to.





Sounds like you may want to settle out of court, which is cheapest anyway. But ask your attorney what her recordings and spyings are worth. The court really doesn't care if you call each other names, and if it's a no-fault divorce, the court doesn't care who you slept with in many cases.
Reply:Sorry to say it but its legal! I did the same to my ex wife for a bargaining chip during my divorce! Nothing you could do, you should have watched what you said and changed your passwords! Bummer for you!
Reply:I dont know but I am pretty sure she can. She's your wife...what's yours is hers and hers is..you know the deal.





My guess is she found what she was looking for in your e-mail and you probably deserve to be blackmailed.



Reply:I don't know the laws in MO, but in CA she would be guilty of several felonies. Not only would the court not allow her to use that information, she would be arrested and prosecuted.





Tell her if she tries to use the information you will have her arrested.
Reply:I actually have seen this. my best friend did all that to her husband, it was legal she got money won the lawsuit..she got$$$
Reply:The e-mail isn't admissible in court and your wife could be in trouble for hacking into your account. The recorded conversations could be admissible, but it will depend on the circumstances. You need to talk to your lawyer about all of this.
Reply:A couple of things....first get a lawyer...he or she will now the answers...secondly...What did you do that she now has a barging chip...I know is some states it is legal to tape someone without their consent...you need to call a lawyer that would be the right thing to do
Reply:If she hacked your e-mail from the computer in your house YES, it's legal, yes she can do that, no grounds to counter sue.





Recorded conversations are legal as long as one of the parties being recorded has knowledge. It's legal and she can use it.





What your attorney should do is file a motion to exclude evidence basing it on coercion.

If I send an email to someone, are they able to trace back personal info about me such as my name, address?

I recently sent an email to someone and found out they are a nut case. Now they claim they are going to trace back and find out personal information about me. I did not give them any personal information in my correspondence. Can they somehow trace where the email is sent from using technology on the web? Is there reason for me to be concerned?

It MIGHT be possible, if they REALLY know what they are doing. Plus, they will probably have to fork out some money to pay to do some lookups. I wouldn't worry too much though, but if you are worried, report them to the police...they can attempt to track them down and press charges.
Reply:Most they could do is just know your email adress but you can easily block theirs.
Reply:All they can find out is where your general service area is (City or State) but not your name or address so don't worry about it and block their email address as spam and forget it...
Reply:all they can get besides your email address is the ip address it was sent from and your isp but they may have your name as well because when you set up an email account it asks what name you want to send with your email but other than that they can't trace the email to your address
Reply:Do you have any personal information associated with that email address? Make sure your password is safe so that he/she cannot read your email and make sure you don't have private information in any public profile associated with that address, especially if it is a yahoo address. You should have no reason to be concerned. However, if you think the threat is real, you should always report it to the authorities.

Yep. Yahoo Mail updates give unreliable readings of Mail Notifiers every where. Mine


stay steady. My friends keep on adding up. Lots of others no reading at all.
