I replied to what I thought was a hacked email. From that they got my contacts and I think hacked 4 or more of them. Now in Firefox my when I send email the auto return address is my hacked account which is not my normal return setting and I checked. It is not changed in settings and next to it is a reply to hacker's address. What do I need to do? Thx Frank Thibault

I suggest you close all hacked accounts and after create new ones.

As a precaution, change all passwords on Everything. Also confirm your personal data on those sites is correct.
