Thanks for your replies.

Well, it definitely sounds like you've been hacked. I don't much about that stuff except for that I don't want it happening to me. I wish I had some advice but I don't, although I'm sure some of the brainier people here on ATS should be able to offer up some tips. I'll be watching for their post if for no other reason than to learn how to protect myself. Thanks for posting.
On another note, I just LOVED your response to them when they banned you from their site. You nailed them and they definitely didn't like it. My question is; Did it cost you any points? Every time I respond like that to a conservative here on ATS, it cost me some points. LOL
My clue that this took place somewhere on the Yahoo side of things and not through my computer was the altering of my outgoing message after the fact. That is not something One can do as a mere user. So if they were accessing my email through my computer, they could not have changed my outgoing (sent already) message.

This a very concerning turn of events indeed. Has much been altered? I use to have a yahoo account, but sometimes there have been months that I have been locked out of it. I have pretty much given up on them. Might check it occasionally if I am board but have another account that I use instead. With what you are trying to do I suggest you research for some local reputable email server with strong security practices. Depending how high up these nefarious practices go your email may still be subject to attack as it travels through cyberspace, but once stored it will be safe. You have got a lot of good things to say and I do not want to hear you silenced.
