I am getting upwards of 400 spam emails a day on my Windows mail. account.
Someone is selling my business email address and I just can't use it anymore.
My business address comes to my regular email account and I want to delete
it. It's causing me nothing but time and frustration.
But I can't figure out to delete this secondary account from my main account.
Can someone help?
Jeff

to remove and then click remove.

If messages being sent to are being downloaded into
Windows Mail and only your is running in Windows Mail,
you'll need to contact your ISP or the email account provider to delete the
account.

I have 3 email addresses all linked to my main email account.
J*****@bellsouth.net is my main address. which
goes to my main address and an organization I belong to which routes all
email with that address to my main email address as well. My business address
jaydubbussiness@ bellsouth.net has been compromised with massive spam. Are
you saying I need to contact my email provider to cancel that address?
Thanks for your help
JayDub
