    So basically no one offers affordable SMTP so I must also setup my very own SMTP server. Can't even contact KYC ******** because they demand you have a company specific Email, Gmail won't work. FFS Everyone is a money grubbing greed monger in the world of #tech

    Some of the 100% real responses I have gotten from it: * This is the nicest newsletter type mail I've gotten, ever. * hi * There was a temporary problem delivering your message.... Gmail will retry for 47 more hours. You'll be notified if the delivery fails permanently.

  • Quantitativus Katsumi (@Quantitativus) reported

    @BEA_News Thanks, I had to apply with three different email addresses before one worked (the other two have still not received a key). The email that ended up working was a .edu (the two that did not work were my personal gmail and my work email). Might want to fix that.

  • mypostdemise Mark (@mypostdemise) reported

    Gmail is so terrible

    @gmail why can i NOT login to my email using IOS ipad, native ipad email, application gmail on IOS ???? @google #gmail #google

  • DistantKepler distantKepler (@DistantKepler) reported

    @seashinegame In the next update, may we be able to link our data with a google account? I use an iPhone, and my game center account is kinda outdated and gmail is a lot easier to use. If not, no problem.

  • hewittchrisd Chris Hewitt (@hewittchrisd) reported

    @AmazonHelp No issues were not resolved. This has been ongoing since Sunday. Gift card was unreadable and trying to add to my account. However I have now been told I have 2 accounts. One with a gmail address and one with a googlemail address. The 2nd person I spoke to wasn’t sure what to do

  • lukthomp Luke Thompson (@lukthomp) reported

    @FrankBednarz @gmail I need Office365 for work, but I'd at least consider it just for how much better Outlook handles my email accounts than Google. (On my main desktop, I'm up to five accounts. I may have a problem.)

  • stuartfmoffatt Stuart Moffatt (@stuartfmoffatt) reported

    @Bitwarden I just reset the Chrome ext with the non-dot gmail username logged in, and now the ext populated with my data. So, user error, and I'll back off now. However, the failed sign up during family org upgrade got me here. Apology accepted? 2/2

  • WilmerVibin Wil (@WilmerVibin) reported

    like back in june, I was literally ******* crying because the brand account glitch happened and I thought my channel was ******, but it was just my gmail, my channel is fine, Wilmer is Vibin :)

  • TaniyaPawaskar TaniyaPawaskar (@TaniyaPawaskar) reported

    @VootSupport please check your gmail I have send you the screenshot and slove this problem soon

  • boomey5555 FatheredPuma81 (@boomey5555) reported

    @TeamYouTube A family member might have a laptop I used to login to the account 9 years ago. Would that work? Also says "Google couldn’t verify this account belongs to you." when I sign in after clicking "recover your Google Account or Gmail" thing. Should I just use a shady free texting app?

  • beemuvi Beeminder Changelog (@beemuvi) reported

    Restarting an ancient GmailZero goal will now result in a helpful error message, alerting you to update your Gmail settings. #bugfix

  • LilliAnnDavis Lilli Ann (@LilliAnnDavis) reported

    @googlenesthelp I don’t really understand what migrate means but my login in details for nest were set up with a gmail account 📧

  • jhamby Jake Hamby (@jhamby) reported

    An engineer at Google made a typographical error like that about 10 years ago and the code started chewing up the Gmail database. It was an embarrassment because Google had to recover the corrupted data from tape backup (good thing they had/have backup tapes!).

  • prtygrlgonebad Think Like Lori-Hive (@prtygrlgonebad) reported

    Is gmail down?

  • jhamby Jake Hamby (@jhamby) reported

    They don't really talk about it in this way, but Gmail was in beta for a long time because they didn't want to declare it an official product until everyone's email was backed up to tape (encrypted, of course), in case of circumstances like typographical errors in some C++ logic.

  • susieatl77 Susie (@susieatl77) reported

    @gmail I’ve used my phone in different locations, not connected to my home network and the problem persists. In addition, a friend of mine with a brand new iPhone is experiencing the same problem. I figured Gmail would have an update soon to address this.

  • AlexOnPatrol Captain Sparklepants 🏳️‍🌈🖖 (@AlexOnPatrol) reported

    @MatthwDayton @ShinobiPhoenix Generating those emails addresses takes time. You won't be able to do it thru a major service like Yahoo, or Google, they won't let you do it. Other trickery, like creating your own email server or using the + function of Gmail, can be blocked on the retailer end.

  • wendland_kevin Kevin Wendland (@wendland_kevin) reported

    @KarenJan Part of the issue is Google pushing Tasks again. Keep wasoving strong then all of sudden Tasks is integrated into Gmail and Calendar. ps Keep is better

  • susieatl77 Susie (@susieatl77) reported

    @gmail I use the same browser on my HP Laptop with no problem. This occurs only on my Apple products (iPhone and iPad). I don’t believe those devices use a browser.

  • ZodiacZella Zella-offline (@ZodiacZella) reported

    @iitsxcassie True story and I had to spend time after class witch was terrible I felt ded luckily she didint send gmail cause my mom see's them 💀💀

  • dassakaye Dalia Dassa Kaye (@dassakaye) reported

    PSA on a recent hacking attempt using a fake gmail account. Those working on Middle East issues may want to take note. Short 🧵

  • Chr_spy 🪤 (@Chr_spy) reported

    @JeffKerr42 @instagram I smell a class action suit we can start 👀 I never ever authorized my work email on IG or used it to sign in or anything. This would mean the IG app on our iPhones is scraping our gmail contacts

  • Hero_Dominus ♤ Licht ♧ (@Hero_Dominus) reported

    @HisokasNose No like what device, cos i lowkey got confused when i had to sign in on a pc versus mobile, apparently if you use just the gmail login from the mobile, youd have to go the settings to connect it to mhy database creating a linked acc that you can use anywhere else

  • daiyahoo0101 ✨daiya✨ (@daiyahoo0101) reported

    @gmail I'm having trouble recovering my email account and nothing on your forums or support page is helping. If there's someone that can help me that would be greatly appreciated.
