In the off chance anyone has tried to get a hold of me since Friday evening, gmail has been fucked since then, with a complete lack of communication (or even acknowledgement that there's a problem).

Google doesn't have IT staff working on weekends? Are you fucking kidding me?

I suspect they DO have IT staff working on the weekends, at least as far as "IT staff on-call" is concerned.

I think you should mail them that picture directly.
Just saying...

They don't have any direct contact info, sadly. Which is a large portion of the problem...

I'm sorry you're having so much trouble with your other email provider...

[etcet.livejournal.com]

Yeah. The one with you works fine, except that thunderbird's jumk/spam filtering seems to have disappeared, and it's just buried in crap.

I've added another layer of testing on the account. See if it fades a bit...

Should I point out at this juncture that "you get what you pay for". And how much does that Gmail cost?

[etcet.livejournal.com]

While true, there are folks with paid accounts also being hosed by this, and 36+ hours of downtime for them is... probably not making with the happy-happy.

Yeah, I'll be moving all my data in to that cloud thing just as soon as possible. Yeah.

Redefining "vaporware" all over again...

When did you convert to the priesthood?

What? Didn't you know? He's got a cult following.
