Hmm - has my email account been hacked? Thoughts please

Hi, I've been in a barney with the local authority of late, and one of the things they can do is hack your phone and emails. This isn't as mad as it sounds - they can do it under RIPA laws, and find any nonsense pretext by which to do it. They're not accountable, and if you uncover local Council corruption they'd be fool not to, so the thinking goes...
Now I tried to get round this by devising a new Yahoo account that they don't know about. Being thick, I used my own name to devise the account. I later found a) I couldn't forward any message to it from my Gmail account, and sending out messages from it was hard at first too... Initially, all I could do was email myself!
Maybe I've just screwed up here, but it seems quite odd, and the so-called State does like to moniter and control emails you send out.
Sadly there isn't a WhatsApp thing to keep emails safe unless I'm much mistaken. Is there a way of getting around having your email hacked? Or is there an innocent explanation for all this?

Have you set up the smtp settings on your yahoo/gmail email account correctly?
Have you tried checking and sending emails on a proper computer after logging in with yahoo?

Negative comments about Surrey County Councils Social Services naming nanes that I posted I simply forgot about. Then, using the independent search engine duckduckgo, I found my post was second. Going back to Google Search Engine, this post was not on the first page, second, third or fourth. Someone had paid to bury the post.
I told someone this over the phone. Next time I look, the duckduckgo search engine is also showing my incriminating post. Tricky stuff!
