I have just learned that my son is reading my email. I'm in TN - he's in FL. This is not something I want happening. How can he do this?
I have dial-up (only option) with Bellsouth. He knows my password from having worked on this computer at one time. Can he check my mail through the web site and then I still receive it at home via Outlook? Or is he getting to it some other way? Please help!!

If he knows your E-mail Address and Password then he can look at it at www.Mail2web.com

Go there yourself and see

So - if I've changed my password - which I did yesterday, as soon as I found out - I'm OK??

Thanks!
