Searching on a yahoo email address I use pulled up dozens and dozens od emails I had sent from that account long ago--that was been deleted! Anyone in this house could have gotten access to them. BTW, I routinely clear my browser cache after use, but that does not clear Google's cache, nor can I find how to do so.
