Chances are your credentials weren't stolen but it just looks like it came from your account. If you can't or don't want to share details here (attach, not post, message with complete headers as plain text) then at least share with Google support.

We don't know your distribution details, Firefox version, use of Java, javascript or plugins, browsing habits etc etc so that's a rhetorical question.

How about
:
- not using SSL for everything Google,
- using a lame password or phrase,
- logging into from different locations leaving cookies everywhere,
- logging in having browsers "autologin" enabled,
- having your recovery phrase phished,
- having your local browsers passwd storage leeched,
- using an insecure browser,
- using an insecure OS that has a keylogger installed,
- using some (illegal?) app that purportedly decrypts passwords but is actually a trojan?
