   Can someone hack my email account if he knows only my email id?
   
   I mean without having to contact me or send me an email. Like is there any software that does this?

   If you use your email on a shared computer there is software that can record keystrokes and recover passwords.  If you open dodgy web sites and get a virus it is possible for people to hack your machine.
   
   The common way for 'professional' hackers is simply to send an email to the victim that looks like it's from your email company asking for your password to be entered.
   
   If in doubt... change your password.

   Yeah; it is possible you have a keylogger virus (though unlikely). Another probable option is that someone reset your password via your secret question.
   
   It's easy for people to click "I forgot my password" and go through the steps of answering a secret question. If your date of birth is one, hometown is another, and favorite cousin is another, well.. chances are all of that information is easily accessible from your Facebook page.
