Do you use Yahoo Mail? Yahoo Mail privacy concern...

Hi everyone,

Do you use Yahoo mail? If so, can you tell me about something?

A friend of mine uses Yahoo mail, and my name email and phone number is in his Yahoo mail contact list as you would expect.

But at the bottom of the page, it lists who I frequently email. How does his email application know who *I* Email, if it's not him?

And on a related note, my mainstream friend is seeing the email address(es) of people I email in the adult industry.

Feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

Maybe, but still...

Let's say your email is beaner @ gmail.com, and you are in my Yahoo mail contacts. This is showing me the people that YOU send email to.

In this case, who's was hacked? Me, or you?

I don't know... I do know that I commonly get spammed from people with yahoo and aol who got hacked and send out mass emails.

Maybe your email is linked up to google or bing in some way and they just snuff out all your info?
