I had one hacked a couple years ago.

Good thing I had expired addresses in my contact list, because that's how I found out I had been hacked - e-mails I didn't send were bouncing.

Changing my password to ten-digit gibberish has kept it from reoccuring.

Then I cut a bunch of people off my contact list, so if that happens again, it won't bother so many people.

I don't understand why in the hell anybody would go to the trouble of taking over someone else's e-mail, when they GIVE e-mail accounts out free for the asking.

They hacked your account for your contact list.
