When Gmail is down, only the web interface is usually affected, so you can still use POP/IMAP clients like Outlook, Thunderbird, Windows Live Mail, Evolution, mobile phone clients like iPhone's mail app and other webmail services that support mail fetching (<a href="http://help.live.com/help.aspx?project=mailfull&market=en-us&querytype=topic&query=wl_mail_proc_otheremailaccounts.htm" rel="nofollow">Hotmail</a>, Yahoo Mail).Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-17318267734199425392009-09-01T21:22:55.173-07:002009-09-01T21:22:55.173-07:00I lost communication with my friends1...Damn.....I lost communication with my friends1...Damn.....surreyhttp://www.whatlimouk.com/limo-hire-surrey.htmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-868286156051714782009-09-01T20:39:53.839-07:002009-09-01T20:39:53.839-07:00just FYI - my GOGGLE Desktop GMAIL Gadget also was...just FYI - my GOGGLE Desktop GMAIL Gadget also was affected (did not work)... so at some point..
