It stops forged use of your exact domain at providers that check it, which is most of them. Look-alike domains need separate monitoring. ### How do I know if I was hacked or just spoofed? If the messages are in your Sent folder or sign-in logs show strange locations, the account was compromised. If not, it was spoofed. ### Can you fix this remotely?
