    Can't help I'm afraid but you should edit your email address out of the above post...

    Doesn't mean that anyone has accessed your email at all - spam senders gather email addresses from anywhere they can, like forums (where people openly paste their email addresses, as you have done) or they generate them randomly/automatically and then they use them as "spoof" addresses so that when they send out their junk it appears to come from your email address, and if undelivered will bounce back to you.

    Annoying, but not a lot you can do about it.

    For piece of mind, you should change whatever passwords you are using to access the email accounts , and scan your PC for anything nasty (just in case).

    Are you sure the accessed your email? Is there loads of these in the sent folder? Are they actually to your contacts or just random addresses that have bounced back to you?

    Have you checked your computer for virus's?

    It is more likely that a spambot has got hold of your email (by it being on places like this) or just guess work by the bot on various name combinations at domain names.

    It then sends it out as if it was you without ever coming from you

    If there is indeed sent mail in your sent box change the password and contact the relevant mail provider (Gmail or NTL depending on what box it is in).
    I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.

    Are the emails actually going to your contacts or just to random people you don't know?

    If it's the latter then it sounds like what TonyMMM has said, just someone spoofing your email address as the sender. You'll get any bounce backs as it looks like it's your email address that sent them out. Doesn't mean a hacker has gotten into your account.

    If the emails are going to your contacts then that be something a little more sinister (like a virus or a trojan) that will need taking care of.
