Still no official word..

I find it irritating that after all this time we STILL can't get any confirmation on our email accounts and if they were breached also. Do you have to change your email password from within Outook?

Have you ever received a phishing email that claimed it was from a bank, you click on the link and you end up at a site that looks very much like the bank site except the URL is wrong?

This was a similar deal here, only they didn't replicate the Comcast site on the new destination server -- they just put up a simple "This site has been hacked" announcement. As such, passwords for account management should not be compromised, nor would exclusive users of webmail have any problems. The only folks who would be at risk are those who keep a mail client running continuously that logs into the server to grab the mail. In that instance the hacked server could potentially have captured your pop3 login information as your client tried to log into the non-comcast mail server to retrieve your mail.
