      Hi David, this solution will solve the problem on Mac or Windows. The problem is with your email host so you need to do as we specified above and this should fix your problem. If you are still having issues, I would advise you contact your host and they should be able to diagnose the problem. Thank you for your comment.

    I can’t find the control panel to stop the spoofing.

      You can contact your hosting server to get access to your control panel. It is usually located at http://www.yourdomain.com/cpanel
      Hope that helps
