I cant even access Gmail at present, all I am getting is ------------- Server Error
Google Mail is temporarily unavailable. Cross your fingers and try again in a few minutes. We are sorry for the inconvenience. ------------ for the last hour! Is this a local or global problem? Certainly a first in my experience. |
must be a local problem, I'm in the UK and it's working fine. try signing out of all google services and then back in.(dunno, it might work) |
I'm in Portugal and I have the same problem.. Although it is not the first time |
I'm not having login issues, but I did notice that a few pieces of spam managed to get to my inbox this morning for the first time in months. This happened on both my accounts....coincidence? I wonder...seems like they're definitely doing some things under the hood. |
I dont have that problem in serbia |
No problem in Czech Republic |
I seem to remember they have always deleted your deleted items after 30 days. |
No problems getting into Gmail, but my trash is still as full as it was yesterday. I even have a message in there from 6/24/04.
I usually go in about every 3 months and clean out the items that are more than 30 days old, just haven't done it in a while lately. :) |
Not problem here in Quebec, Canada. |
Would be nice if Gmail Team allowed users to specify when they want their Trash & Spam folders to be emptied. As a web developer myself, i don't think this small setting would be difficult for the team to add in less than 10 mins!
Btw, i just can't figure out why Gmail Team hesitates to add many of the features users would like to have for Gmail (ie. calendar, todo, planner, embedded google reader, plus more). Yes, i know new features = testing + efficiency use! |
Just check my Trash Can, and yes they deleted all mails that are older than 30 days.
So, oldest mail in the Trash is now from 7 Nov. |
Google wants all content... old, new, worthless. Content is king, even if it is your trash. |
I had the login problem for a while yesterday. However, my spam and trash folders still have everything they had before. Including, i just noticed, a spam from someone with the supposed last name 'disreputable' which is an.... interesting marketing strategy ;) |

Google just added 'web clips', a one line news thing above your inbox. These are RSS feeds for news... but they also show ads. It goes right above the main inbox (but can be turned off). I haven't been able to get any RSS feeds yet (the search doesn't seem to work in Safari), but I'm going to try now in Firefox. |
