Need you help. I just got a message from g-mail that my email was access by a unknown user. I changed all my passwords but I'm still kind of nervous. I have so much personal information in my email account

Oddly enough, can a hacker use a alternate web domain as a source? My activity in gmail showed the source came from fmhlaw.com which is not a real website.

Any help will hopefully calm me down

It chronicles my experience of having my gmail account hacked from some random in China. And it has a lot of good info in there that will be relevant to you too.
