UKC

Is it just my computer or is google mail not working for anyone else?

In reply to maresia:

Same here. I've used it for years and never had an issue!

I feel like I've lost a limb

In reply to maresia:
its not working for me either, I thought it was our rubbish IT

In reply to maresia: Same here

In reply to rossowen:

At least it's not me then! It is driving me mad as I can't check my email every 30 seconds like I usually do

In reply to maresia:
And me. I have customer details i need to get at!

In reply to shingsowa:

Google apps for business is down too - ouch!

In reply to maresia:

How frustrating!

In reply to stuckonarock:
Is this how the world ends? All we need is UKC and facebook to go down and that's it... better start flint knapping...

In reply to shingsowa:

Don't even joke about it!

I'm going out for a walk to try and take my mind off it...

In reply to maresia:

Annoyingly my mate can access it via his IPhone as POP3 services are still running.

In reply to maresia:

Just logged on to UKC to post the same question...

In reply to Reaver2k:

Yet another reason to buy a nice new shiny toy like an iphone

In reply to maresia: yea me to, maybe an update underway

In reply to shingsowa:

I installed the offline version of Google Mail (under the labs button) and it downloads everything in the background to your computer in case of loss of connection - handy on my laptop so I can retrieve stuff when a connection is impossible such as a plane etc.

I can't send mail etc but at the moment I can obviously search through and retrieve everything in my archive.

In reply to maresia: I access it via imap which is working but slow.

In reply to BigBrother:

how do you set that up?

In reply to maresia:
It happens now and again with gmail, bit annoying but doesn't tend to last too long.

In reply to maresia: Same here. Not working for a while now. PS spotted that Billy did his first lead!

In reply to maresia:

BBC are running a story on it.

In reply to fromthesouth:

Yep, he did it in fine style as well - a severe in Avon. I take it you climb with the club he's joined.

In reply to maresia: No, mostly climbing with mates. Was in Glencoe last week. Thawing all week though. Went to the ice factor on Wednesday in desperation.

In reply to maresia:

mild hijack but one of the googlemail 'themes' is mountains - does anyone know which mountains all of the images are?

In reply to Tall Clare:

I have this... it's the Matterhorn (at least that's what it is on my iGoogle page)

In reply to Tony the Blade:

it seems to scroll, day by day, through around seven images.

In reply to Tall Clare:

Ah not the same one then - I'll check...

It's beautiful mountains... http://tinyurl.com/dmxgre

YAY!!

Googlemail is back. And after all of that frustration of not being able to get my emails I have 4 in my inbox - 3 of which are spam and the other one boring!

In reply to maresia: You need a blackberry, get them pinged through to your phone. With a Blackberry, you know when nonbody loves you!

In reply to maresia: Don't know about anyone else but ive got it working

In reply to hunted by a panda:
back online apparently

In reply to yorkshireman:
is that not just the same as having your mail program POP access it?
