Gmail probs!!!!

[Gareth]

yeah, it requires a bit of a different mindset, having labels instead of folders, but the ability to have multiple labels per message is appealing and is something you can't really do with folders.

I know some people who have had difficulty even accessing their G-mail Account.

I guess thats why they call it beta..

Yep sometimes the server lags a bit but for a BETA service its not doing too badly
I've only failled to access Gmail twice so far and that was at a peak time period so I can't grumble really

Nah - im talking about permanently - as in NO access because it screws up.

If you send e-mails to the account you just get delivery delay failures until it times out.

Ive never had a problem with access to GMail.

Looks like i must like you more than i thought

Ok....... a couple of links that show that i'm not the only person having problems accessing my account..... strangely enough i can log in to change my password and details........ but if i try to get to my email account the page tries to refer me on........ and then times out or says that the page isn't available
I've tried all the cookie and temp page flushing.... changing privacy settings etc in IE and ZA.... allowing google.com etc..... using different browser - Firefox......... REBOOTING for god's sake!!!!!

Nothing..... and Theblueraja even tried to access my account from his pc in Hove but he had the same problem.....

Luckily, i have many an email address to use and so can wait..... for Beta to become Omega

I must have a special lucky internet connection or something, I've been able to access it every time I tried, unfortunately I'm moving house in a month or so and will be going back to NTL *grimace* I wouldn't gamble on my success rate then.

I'm not with NTL hang on.......... shouldn't that be

Think it's just the luck of the draw as far as gmail's concerned...... i set up an account....... sent out a few emails...... but everyone that's replied has told me that they're getting bounced back mails saying that the delivery is pending and should occur in due course.......

Well even if they DO reply............. I'LL NEVER KNOW!!!

Oh and this is me caring right at this moment......

All I can say is that I've only ever had about 1 day when it wasn't working, but other than that it's been fine.

I just noticed that my spam folder is full, no wonder I have not been seeing much email, thats an excellent feature.
The only thing is I still feel that I have to trawl through the spam folder to check if anything has been mistaken for spam that should not be.
