 No subject, no text. Just a dummy e-mail that, I guess, says my e-mail address exists and somehow is able to have e-mail sent from it. But how and to what end? Is this indicative of a virus? That my account's been hacked? If it's the latter, I'll lose my decades-old backup address, but life will mostly go on. I'm more worried/wondering about the implications. --- Only the exceptions can be exceptional. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Seeing as it's a yahoo address, I'd have to go out of my way to send something from that, unlike a situation where it might happen with some native browser client and a "mailto" instruction. And I definitely don't know anything about fox.com, which appears to be the site for the TV network.

yeah just change your password
if you've actually been hacked then that would solve the problem just as much as closing your account would ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think it could also be you unsubscribing from some email list? although it's weird that it actually ended up in your sent folder.
