    @bt_uk Your email security is blocking access to the mail server as it suspects the network I’m on… works sometimes, then stops, change network and it’s a lottery if it works or not… I’ve setup a forward to gmail

    @05Danzel @Chymamusique It doesn't need the whole email, on Gmail you could do anything you want but on certain company emails, you have to type it exactly like I told you or it will show you mail server rejected your email

    Your Gmail storage is “full” again. You deleted emails. Cleared spam. Removed attachments. Still full. Because Gmail keeps hidden storage hogs most people never check. I freed 18GB without deleting a single important email. Here’s where Google hides the real junk: 👇 1. Google Photos backups Open Most people have years of blurry videos eating space. 2. Gmail’s giant hidden files Search this in Gmail: "has:attachment larger:10M" You’ll instantly find massive files you forgot existed. 3. Google Drive trash Drive trash still counts toward storage until it’s emptied. Go to: 4. Backup files from old phones Android backups can silently use several GB. Check them here: 5. Shared files you don’t own Huge shared files still appear in your Drive and confuse storage usage. 6. Promotional emails with attachments Search: "category:promotions has:attachment" Delete hundreds at once. 7. Hidden app data Old apps connected to Google can store backup junk forever. Review here: Do this once a month and Gmail storage problems disappear.

    2. Delete entire categories in bulk Gmail automatically sorts emails, use it to delete fast: -Search: category:promotions (all promotional emails) -Search: category:social (Facebook, LinkedIn notifications, etc.) -Search: category:updates (receipts, confirmations) -Check the box → “Select all conversations that match this search” -Delete everything at once These categories pile up for years and most of them can be deleted without any problem.

    the fastest way to fix your deliverability… suppress 30% of your list. the dead weight that hasn't opened in 120+ days is killing your sender reputation. gmail sees you sending to inboxes that ignore you, and it quietly slides every future send into promotions or spam. your "list of 200k" is actually 140k engaged subscribers and 60k anchors pulling you under. cut them out. watch your inbox placement jump in less than 2 weeks.

    @k1rallik It hasn’t happened to my Gmail accounts yet and I make anime fan fiction. All of my videos are available on Google Drive and the U.S. Government and Austin Police Department have my logins and passwords. Nobody has attempted to shut me down.

    I don’t understand why Gmail keeps telling me to buy more storage or risk not receiving new emails. I’ve been using Yahoo Mail for over two decades and never had this kind of issue. Honestly, this is really frustrating.

    @buzz_because Thanks for confirming that the issue is with your Gmail account. Do you happen to know if there are any delays of getting your emails on a computer/laptop? Also, another thing I would double check is ensuring that you don't have a Do Not Disturb schedule set up 1/2

    𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝘀 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗼 There's a free Google tool that builds real apps from one sentence. This update knocked down 3 walls at once. Here's what's new: → Your apps now plug straight into Gmail, Sheets, Docs, Drive, and Calendar. → Build a real native Android app. Not a fake web page. → Test it in a fake phone right in your browser. No setup needed. → Plug your phone in by USB. The app jumps onto it. → Put your first 2 apps online for free. No credit card. No fees. → Point at any button and say "make this bigger." It just does. A dashboard that used to take a developer a week now takes a sentence. The people who build little tools now will get hours back every week.

    The core problem: constant badgering to use tools people don't want is just bad UX. When you open Gmail, you want to find an email, not be asked to chat with AI. When you're applying for jobs being eliminated by AI, a Gemini offer letter generator isn't comforting.

    Grok Connectors plug straight into your apps. Gmail, Drive, Notion, Calendar. Emails, docs, notes, schedules. All live. All usable. Why this matters: * No more copy-paste between apps * Grok uses your actual emails, documents, notes, and calendar * Saves serious time on daily tasks * Works on the free plan too * More connectors keep getting added Connect your apps: * Open Grok; app or web * Go to Settings, then Connectors, or tap the + / tools icon * Pick your apps; Gmail, Drive, Notion, Calendar * Tap Connect; sign in and approve access No special commands. Simple prompts: * “Summarize my unread Gmail from the last 24 hours” * “Find the latest project proposal in Drive and summarize it” * “Search my Notion for notes about [topic]” * “Draft a reply to my boss using the Q2 report from Drive” * “What’s on my calendar next week? Show free slots” * “Organize my recent Notion pages about [topic]” Pro tips: * Be specific; dates, folders, keywords * Works best in text chats for now. Voice support is coming soon * Disconnect anytime in Settings This is where it stops being a chatbot. @xai

    I have a Gmail and use g suite for work, but this will stop me from ever using @google search engine ever again. The AI mode is an actively terrible user experience and makes checking sourcing an active hassle.

    @Daily_Tholinds your Gmail pass and Twitter pass or any other means of logging in without twitter paas. those are enough if you have changed them. if you have, there's nothing to worry about, just a technical error or affirmation. on mobile, i even sometimes have to login many a few weeks myself

    @AyakaMods The AI flagging piracy is reasonable. But 'upload your own work, lose Gmail forever' is a punishment that shouldn't exist. Google's problem isn't the AI. It's the design.

    btw this won't work if you just use the "Sign in with google feature" you will have to force to "use an email" and still use your gmail account!
