Where you found this message ? If account hacked with email address and I am holding my private key then what happened? Sign message from unedited address or from staked address should enough for recover account in my opinion. How someone will send mail if account hacked with email address? I think it's very difficult. If this is true then theymos should consider some more options. Because account might be hacked with email address.

If account hacked with email address (also hacked) and you are holding the private key of a unedited address, i don't think you have chance to get it back. Re-read the rule please:

If your account was hacked

Email recoveries...@bitcointalk.org, ideally from the account's email address. Include your username and a brief description of the details of how/when the account was hacked. A signature will likely be required (see below).

As a confirmation, this is the email received by @OP and posted in his appeal thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2156605.msg49181496#msg49181496
