QuadsZilla Who the hell do i contact when Gmail decides to stop sending me my emails? It’s been more than 24 hours and they’ve stopped sending me my emails. There is no place report this problem but everyone contacting me gets this message:
>>> RCPT To: user@gmail.com>
< << 450-4.2.1 The Gmail user you are trying to contact is receiving
<<< 450-4.2.1 mail at a rate that prevents additional messages from
<<< 450-4.2.1 being delivered. Please resend your message at a later
<<< 450-4.2.1 time; if the user is able to receive mail at that time,
<<< 450 4.2.1 your message will be delivered. c12si23487507nzc
user@gmail.com… Deferred: 450-4.2.1 The Gmail user you are trying
to contact is receiving
Warning: message still undelivered after 4 hours
Will keep trying until message is 5 days old
24 hours of no emails . . . when will it be fixed?

basically they said wait 24 hours :/
Well, that sucks… Were you expecting to receive a shit load of emails between yesterday and today?
someone used my domain name as the from on a bulk spam. I’ve since removed the catch all – but still gmail sends me no more messages
Update: we’re past 36 hours and still no emails. No one from google has contacted me following my “form” request and there is no solution from the discussion boards other than wait.
40 hours and the messages have started to come in again.
and it stopped again. wow this is lame.
Their form probably emails to their gmail account
. I wonder if I was supposed to be getting messages and missed a bunch :-/.
Hi Quadszilla
Heard your show the other day, thought it was good to hear some of the things that you get upto.
Thought you might find this new site of interest, I have heard everyone complaining about DIGG and the way SEO stories get trashed, so I have launched
http://www.search4geeks.com which is a opensource clone of DIGG just for SEO community.
You have a story on there, thanks
