Thread: Gmail down ?

I am unable to access Gmail since sometime..

It is also featured in reddit.com: what's new online!

Gmail down ? I'm getting "Server Error The server encountered a temporary error and could not complete your request. Please try again in 30 seconds. " (Paris, France, Feb 24th 2009, 11.25AM local time) : reddit.com

Is the site opening up for fellow board members?

i have been noticing some strange behaviours in gmail for some time. it is opening up for me but is taking lot of time to respond to clicks on inbox, spam etc etc. also the search function is not responding instantly.

Which is the ISP? Tata Indicom, right?

Ok. just to inform - this is not a problem with all bsnl subscribers. i just now received mails from one of friends who is a BSNL subscriber

Yes. Now i understood. The problem is with specific accounts only. I am able to login to my alternate email ids, but the primary email id just started working now..

Thanks for the info BTW

Had tried it earlier. Back then it was opening up to me only on m.gmail.com !!

Thanks.

pleasure
I always use https only

here is one alternative for firefox users

Add the add-on USER AGENT SWITCHER from here
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59
then go to
tools>user agent switcher>options
select "user agent" in left pane
click "Add"
indicate the following particulars
Description "iPhone"
user agent "Mobile Safari 1.1.3"
App Name "AppleWebKit/420+"
App Version "Version/3.0"
Platform "Mobile/1A542a Safari/419.3"

restart firefox
select iPhone agent from>
tools>user agent switcher>iPhone

now type this in the address bar
"http://mail.google.com/mail/x/gdlakb-/gp/"
what u would get is the iPhone optimised version of GMail

i didnt get any of those problems.
i guess it must be with the ISP that u r working on
