How strong was your email password?

Security Questions?

Obviously the hacker got into your email, can you verify with Full Tilt or the email provider to see if an email for a "Lost Password" was sent to your account.

Smart hackers sit in your email and delete the evidence of this.

I don't believe he got the password through a password request sent to my email, as I was still able to login using my regular password. A regular password request would send out a completely new password and the old one would never be known, I haven't checked with full tilt's security but I would hope this would be the case. My personal email password probably wasn't the strongest, it definitely wasn't guessable but I guess it could have been brute forced.
