I have recently had my email hacked. I have followed the advice regarding removing auto forward email addresses I don't know. I notice that in the filters there are =jjj and = kkk. Should these be in there or should I delete them ?

If you didn't set them up then delete them.

I hope that you have followed all the other advice for hacked accounts, i.e changing the account password and security answers as well as checking all your devices for malware.

Thanks Graham. Yes I have changed my password etc. I have deleted them all and the auto forward filter and I am finally getting my emails into my inbox. Success!
