My email address is being used to send emails everyday by someone else? Can I fix this?

I'm getting about 30 messages a day with this subject "Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender" and no recognizable email addresses in the list included.

Can I fix this without changing my email account?

If not, are there steps outlined for transferring from this account to a new one?

Thanks.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem
