One of my email addresses has been hacked but I'm not sure if it's from the pc or from the server. . It's been receiving emails entitled 'Mail delivery failed:Returning message to sender. Is there any way you can check where the hack came from? I made a copy of one of the emails if you need it. Thank you.

Hello, Thank you for contacting us. This type of problem is usually caused by a weak password, or compromised computer. I recommend immediately changing the email password for any email account you suspect is spamming. This should stop the spam from continuing. Be sure to use a strong password. Then, scan the computer that primarily accesses that account. If you want to post an example email here, feel free. Be sure to mark out any account specific information. Thank you, John-Paul
