How do I send an email to a different country?
I am trying to send an email to El Salvador, but it is a yahoo account. Do I specify which country it is being sent to? Are there additional letters I should tag on to the end of the email address? I know the email address is correct however, the first time I tried it, it didn't go through.

Yahoo Mail. How do I hide e-mail addresses when sending to several people?
You can use an option called BCC. You can find the option to show the text field by clicking a link called "show bcc" that rests just above the 'To' field (if you're in yahoo mail). This option allows you to add in e-mail addresses that are completely hidden from the recipients. :P Good luck!

Why am I receiving numerous "failure notice" emails in my yahoo account for emails I never sent?
Sounds like your E-mail account has been compromised, or you picked up a virus, Callahan. Immediately have your computer checked for a 'bug' or 'bugs.' If you have the proper programs, do the scans yourself, if not you need to take your computer to some one who can. Once it is clean of pests, install a firewall and an anti-virus program if you do not have one yet. I strongly recommend a program for malware and adware also. After you finish this, then go in and change your password, using a good strong one. Also, check your account information and make sure no information was changed, if it was change it back immediately. Then, you will have to inform your contacts that it was not you sending that mail, but they need to check their computers in case they were also infected.
How do I control unintended emails sent out from my account?
I am often receiving an email that shows the sender as my email id (yahoo), and the receipient as me and several others from my contact list. I have run virus scan several times, except for the tracking cookies there appears to be no risk from my computer. I have not compromised with my password and have also changed it few times but to no avail. I checked if my account is spoofed but no, it is perfectly my email id. I have changed my password, run virus scans frequently, checked whether the sender is spoofed email but no, so what else can I do to get rid of this issue?
I got an email sent from someone else with my own gmail address. Does this mean that my account has been hacked?
As João Miguel points out, forging a FROM address is trivial. However, it's easier than even using a PHP script. Most email clients let you set the FROM address on your account and don't require any validation that it's actually your email address (or even a valid address at all). I can go into Apple Mail, Thinderbird, Microsoft Outlook or just about any other client and set my FROM address to anything from sjobs@apple.com to president@whitehouse.gov and there's very little that will stop me from sending out emails with any of those addresses in the From line. That said, email messages are still eminently traceable to their real source just by looking at the headers; most email clients will let you do this through a "Show Headers" or "Show Original Message" option. I believe in Gmail it's the latter and can be found on the drop down menu that appears in the top right corner when reading a message. These headers can be a bit complicated to decipher, but if you look at the various "Received by" entries you'll see the path the message took and often whether it was senwas from an authenticated account, and whether it ultimately traces back to Gmail or some other random server. All of that having been said, I echo João Miguel's advice: change your password anyway, just in case. It's a relatively painless thing to do, and always better to be safe than sorry. I'd also suggest going to accounts.google.com and reviewing any other third-party services that may have been granted access to your account, and removing any you know you don't need any more. Enabling two-step verification is definitely always a good idea as well.
How can I get rid of sexually explicit emails showing up in my in-box (and bulk if possible)?
You have some very good advice here from others members, so here is my take on it: Set up email filters, junk email filters, spam filters. Almost all email programs have some BASIC email filter you can add or edit. You did not list your email program or if you have web based email thru a broadband connection like cable or DSL so I can not give you more specific help. Go to HELP on your mail account. type in words like filter, block, spam, etc to help point you in the right direction of how YOU want to handle the offensive emails. BUT DO NOT... DO NOT UN-Subscribe..it only validates that you are reading it and validates your email address for more. The easiest and quickest way is to block ALL emails except from those you want to add to the SAFE or ALLOW List. This way you will know that only THOSE emails will get through to you. Also, you can delete that email account and start another one. if you choose to do that... create 2 then..one for personal correspondence only...Friends and family who you trust not to add your name to any group email chain letter. and then create another email for subscribing to email lists and entering contests or getting more information form Manufacturers on the web.
How to reply to original sender without including subsequent messages forwarded to others?
I just got an e-mail. I forwarded it to another correspondent with an added message. Now I want to reply only to the original sender, but my added message is attached to the original e-mail. I cannot reply to the sender without including my message to the person to whom I forwarded the e-mail. I found instructions in Yahoo Mail help for deleting one message in a conversation, but the instructions are incorrect. It says to expand the message, click "more" in the toolbar, and click on "Delete message". However, there is no "Delete message" option in the "more" menu. Besides, I don't really want to delete my added message to trash, I just want to reply to the original message without including the added message. Also besides: in any case, if I click the reply button for the conversation, it sets up a reply to the recipient of the last communication, the one forwarded. The address of the sender of the original message is hidden. If I click on the name of the original sender, the e-mail address does not appear, nor is there a menu including "save this sender and address to contacts," "send a new message to this sender only," "view the e-mail address behind this name," or anything like that. What a mess! What used to be normal, easy and intuitive is now impossible! And worst of all, your new help messages are incorrect, as I also found this morning trying to solve a problem with Yahoo weather. I'm dreading the changeover to the new My Yahoo!
