Re: Email keeps opening up Gmail
Silly question has the "Keep me logged in" or similarly worded messaged been checked?

Re: Email keeps opening up Gmail
Not sure which browser you are using, or whether the solution to my problem could explain yours but if you use Firefox could your preference for VM have been changed to Google?
Click the menu button (3 stripes on right) and choose Preferences.
Select the Applications panel.
type: mailto in the search bar and select it.
I am using a loaned laptop set to Thunderbird and it took me a few frustrated tries to work out why I keep going there rather than Google.

Re: Email keeps opening up Gmail
Just tried to get on webmail:
Emails on my phone don't seem to be updating either.
Doesn't look too good

Best walk away for a while, no point wasting time trying to fix something that may not even be broken once VM get their act together,
