I get wife's emails.

I had 2 email addresses with Yahoo for years.  My address:  me@xxx .  My wife's is her@.xxx.   Now,  emails addressed to her come to my phone.  She gets a lot.  I am tired of forwarding all her stuff to her (I forward her emails to gerry@xxx and she gets them.)

How can I get this straightened out.   Who do I talk to?

Thanks.

Check to see if you need to remove her account from your phone setup... perhaps you have both accounts set up in your phone; that's the most likely culprit.

Problem is not with phone as far as I know,  I get wife's emails on my desk computer also.  But I don't know how to check the phone to see if her calls are there.  I've had phones and email accounts for decades, but this problem has just appeared.  I suspect it has to do with the ATT taking over the Yahoo business -- but what do I know?

Logout her@xxx on your devices

Which is essentially what @JefferMC  is suggesting

sI am not "logged in" to any place.  These are just emails addressed to her@xxxthat show up on on my computers and phones.

You configure the e-mail app in your phone with the server and user information to be retrieved from the mail server.  You can do multiple e-mail accounts (e.g. you may have an att account, a yahoo account, etc.).  What we are suggesting is that you have set up both your e-mail and your wife's e-mail accounts to be retrieved by your phone's e-mail app.

Please look at the e-mail account setup in your phone and verify that her account does not appear in any account set up in your mail app.
