Hello, 

I would recommend you scan for malware on any device you use your email through, and then reset the password:

‎Account: Reset Email Password | Homestead Community

@elyzabethv​ Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried that several times and the email hack persists only on my homestead account. For example, I don't have this problem with gmail or yahoo. I believe it is limited to my homestead business account only. In fact, I changed my homestead password this morning and six hours later, I continue to get emails from this hacker.

Are they delivery failure bounceback messages from messages that were sent before you changed the password? If so, those will, unfortunately, continue for some time until they eventually time out.
