How to know which third party app use my mail

There are a few ways to find out which third-party apps are using your email address:

Method 1: Check your email account settings

  1. Log in to your email account (e.g., Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo).
  2. Click on the gear icon or settings icon (usually located in the top right corner).
  3. Look for "Account" or "Settings" and click on it.
  4. Scroll down to the "Apps with access to your account" or "Connected apps" section.
  5. Check the list of apps that have access to your account. If you see any suspicious or unknown apps, revoke their access.

Method 2: Use a password manager

  1. If you use a password manager like LastPass, 1Password, or Dashlane, you can check which apps have access to your email account.
  2. Log in to your password manager and check the "Email" or "Account" section.
  3. Look for any apps that have access to your email account and revoke their access if necessary.

Method 3: Check your browser extensions

  1. Open your web browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox).
  2. Click on the three vertical dots or the menu icon (usually located in the top right corner).
  3. Click on "More tools" or "Settings" and then select "Extensions".
  4. Check the list of installed extensions. If you see any suspicious or unknown extensions, disable or remove them.
  5. Some extensions may have access to your email account, so be sure to check their permissions.

Method 4: Use a third-party app scanner

  1. There are several third-party apps that can scan your email account for unauthorized access, such as:
    • Mailtrack (for Gmail)
    • Email Tracker (for Outlook)
    • Account Activity (for Yahoo)
  2. Install the app and follow the instructions to scan your email account.
  3. The app will provide a list of apps that have access to your email account, along with information on when they last accessed your account.

Method 5: Check your email provider's website

  1. Visit your email provider's website (e.g., Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo).
  2. Look for a section that says "Security" or "Account settings".
  3. Check the list of apps that have access to your account. If you see any suspicious or unknown apps, revoke their access.

By following these methods, you should be able to identify which third-party apps are using your email address. Remember to regularly review your account settings and permissions to ensure that only authorized apps have access to your email account.
