There are several places where water is stored in the machine and hoses, which is normal. If you do not use your machine much this water can become stagnet and pick up a smell, you can notice this especially in a rental house which is vacant often. Another cause is if you have the exhausted water plumbed to the main drain line without a trap the smell can come from the area around the washer. A way to help reduce this is to wash your white clothes last, the bleach and hot water you use can help reduce the smell.

How do you get rid of the smell in clothes you left in the washer?
To get rid of the smell in clothes that you've left in the washer too long.......put your washing machine cycle on the rinse cycle, let it fill with cold water and put in 1 to 2 cups of White Vinegar.

Put them in the washer and use a good laundry soap. When you take them out see if you can still smell the sulfur. If you can't smell it anymore then dry them, if you can still smell it, continue washing them until the smell is gone, then dry them. Adding a cup of vinegar to the wash can also help neutralize some odors. Use white vinegar, not apple cider vinegar.
