    @gmail It's kind of weird to see such an issue. I'm trying to send to 2 GMail addresses from 2 different email addresses and none of them worked. Moreover - when I send email from GMail to i.e. Outlook and reply to it - it works... 🤔

    A couple of spam emails escaped Gmail's spam filter in the recent two days. I wonder if it has anything to do with yesterday's massive outage. Just a thought.

  • ITguyGeek Postliminy (@ITguyGeek) reported

    So Gmail is having another massive outage. Funny that the worst hit areas are where Facebook and Twitter have their main servers. Makes you wonder what they are trying to hide.
