Ssu, you're here on a forum so you're probably computer literate enough to know what a phishing email is. Podesta's email account was compromised by a phishing email that linked to a site that looked like Google, where he entered his password.
It was a method of gaining access to Podesta's emails that many people could have carried out. It didn't require particular expertise beyond making a site that looks like gmail and having Podesta's email address in order to send him the link.

And simply to say that Putin seems to hate Hillary, but let's go forward with the elections... Not trying to deny it after the intelligence services came out with the message that it was the Russians.
