How do I know if someone is opening my email before I read it, then marking it as unread?

In general, no. If you have a serious problem, contacting your ISP may help, but they generally will not do it even then.

is there any way i can find out how many times a day i (in my case i or anyone else) get into my Yahoo! mail account?? I'm pretty sure someone is but lack proof (and it's not from my computer).

Not that I'm aware of, no.

Hi- I think someone has access to my earthlink email account and has been checking my email. Is there anyway possible to trace their IP address or find out who is checking my email? This is a huge security issue so if I notified police is there anything they would be able to do?

You would need to contact earthlink customer support.

I sent an e-mail to someone and realized I didn't want to send it. I guessed her password and logged into her yahoo account to delete it before she could read it. She read it, but I deleted it anyways so she couldn't forward it. Is their anyway if she suspects someone was in her e-mail that she could trace it back to me? I feel ****** for doing that. Thanks!

Someone is accessing me email. Is there any way I can track the location and ISP of the person who is doing this?

The practical answer is no. You would have to convince the folks at Hotmail to help you, which is highly unlikely unless you involve law enforcement.

I am under the suspicion that someone is logging onto my im account what software if any can i use to find out if it is so and who it is?

I know of no software to do that. Change your password.
