How do I report and get resolution for my problem with a yahoo.com
email address.I am receiving over 50 virus emails a day from
jen_a_davis@yahoo.com.I do not know this person. It has the words PETA
ALERT in half of the subject headings. My virus program has identified
it as a virus but just deleting it from my delete file is a constant
nuisance.
Thank you

Clarification of Question by alfredrae-ga on 25 Jan 2006 18:51 PST

I do not use yahoo mail as my email provider. The email containing the
virus is from a yahoo account.I have blocked the address in my outlook
account but I still have to close the virus window over 50 times a day
and delete them from my delete file

Forward the message to abuse@yahoo.com or mail-abuse@yahoo.com

It may well not be coming from that e-mail address, as it is common to fake these.

You can go to Options in yahoo mail(This link appers on the right-top
of page and click on "Block Addresses". Here add the mail address
jen_a_davis@yahoo.com and click the button add block. After that all
the mails from this address will be deleted automatically and you
won't get any other mail from jen_a_davis@yahoo.com.

Option 1: Ask to the administrator of the server (ex: smith@dell.com
server name is dell.com))where your account is stored to block this
email address.
Option 2:  Deactivate the message from your antivirus and set it to
delete virus automaticly when detected.
Option 3: verify your pc with antivirus and spybot.
Option 4:Change your email adress...

good luck

You don't need a Yahoo account to report harassment.Yahoo will deal
with it if it's coming from one of their account holders.

Please post the "Full Header" to make sure the email is actually
coming from said sender.

If you're not sure how to do this; just go to the "Help" selection in
your email program and type in "full header"; then do what it says.
This will be very helpful, plus you'll need this information if you
decide to make a complaint with your ISP.
