That email is actually correct. As Adobe's servers got hacked. As a precaution, they are emailing people advising them to change their password, just incase.
You can read more about it direct from Adobe's site here - <http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/customer-alert.html> or here <http://www.macrumors.com/2013/10/03/adobe-hacked-2-9-million-customer-accounts-compromised/> So yes, it may pay to change your password for your Adobe account, "just incase".
