Email drafts created in my draft folder - not created by me

Hello,

I again (2-nd time during this year) found draft emails (empty) in my draft folder in my MS 365 Mail Account which I did not create.

It is the same issue as the following one:

What is the solution?

Thank you in advance.

Regards

Petr

PS:

The first time it happened I deleted the drafts, changed my Office 365 password, checked my computer for viruses, no issues reported.

    Hello Petr,

    Most likely the account was hacked and a spammer tried to send email from your account. Change you password and if possible, enable 2-step authentication.
