Chances are that your uncle's PC is infected, Tom.

I had the son turn off his receipt confirmation setting and this stopped
me from receiving the emails. I also had both delete my email address,
reboot, and reinstall it.

I still have no idea as to what would have caused me to receive the
emails
as outlined in my original email.

Hi:

I am receiving confirmation of an email sent by a cousin to his dad. The
strange thing is how can I receive an email confirmation when I was not an
addressee?

All three of us have different ISP's. My cousin has his email settings to
receive confirmation of receipts, but again how can I be receiving a
confirmation when he sends his dad an email and his dad opens it? In
addition, all emails that his dad sends him I get a copy even though I am
not an addressee.

This is mind boggling and I sure hope someone can tell me what needs to
be
accomplished to prevent this from happening.

Thanks
