Kim K has warned of a hack by someone calling him/herself "The Collector", which has stolen 273 million email passwords for accounts from numerous email providers. These passwords make it possible to send malicious email which appears to come from the accont holder (to anyone in the address book?). Is this true? Has it gotten thunderbird passwords?

Thunderbird is not a provider. Thunderbird does not have a password. Your email account with your provider has a password. It is client software running on YOUR computer. I guess you are the one to answer has your computer been hacked?

The only way I would know is if a recipient questioned an email and inquired. I have done this a few times myself.

And thank you for accommodating my ignorance. My 72 year old brain just didn't think of that.
