Has anyone else been having trouble with Gmail? For the past few days, I've been able to sign in okay but a little while into using it, it'll refuse to load and just sit there and I end up having to refresh or reopen it in a new page. That'll happen anything between one and five times a day. If it keeps going on like this I'm tempted to get a new email address..

On another note, I'm in a frustrated mood. It's too damn hot and first Thomas and then Steve decided they'd use 'power tools' to cut down a tree/mow the lawn and it's so loud. My head feels like it's splitting. Of course the head-splitting may be due to the fact I've eaten two carrots and not a whole lot else today, but.. *nods* Bleh.

You should try using your gmail account through Outlook express. Its awesome!

Oh yeah? I did a search and don't have Outlook express but I have Windows Mail. Looks to be the same thing.

Anyway, how would I set it up? I'm not sure about the whole POP3 and SMPT server info..

If you can manage to log into your google mail they have a help section on it. All the pop stuff to put in ect. I really have no clue off the top of my head, I've had mine on my PC for a couple of years now.

Thanks, I've figured it out. Was much easier than I remember. Last time I tried setting it up I failed miserably. :P
So yes. Thank you!!

I was having a trouble a few days ago but that could have been because I was downloading a tonne of shit at work :P It's working fine for me now, at home and work.

We have a cool change now and the wind is even a little cold! *loves* I'll send some your way :D

Hmm, yeah. Perhaps it's just that for me too. Too many windows open at the same time. *ponders* Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] odakota_rose I now have Microsoft Mail set up so I'll see how it goes with that anyway.

Awwww, thank you! I'm just holding out for night time. Always cooler then.

Gmail has been the biggest pain ever for the last week. x_x The mobile phone version is way quicker, if you can access it on your phone :\

M'kay. So not just me then.. Sadly I don't have the mobile version available on my phone. Might have to look into it.

Don't have any gmail trouble... but I usually access it through my phone... so I'm prolly not the best reference.

Hmmm okay. I've been using the basic version for the past hour or so and no troubles so maybe it's just this internet anyway. Though someone mentioned they'd been having a few troubles this week..

Occasionally on my laptop mine won't load properly. I just have to stop it, then hit refresh, and it then loads fine. *shrugs* Maybe they've been having some server difficulties or something.

Hmmm okay. Well that's definitely another option. Maybe that's just it.

It's been being stubborn for me. It won't load always, and it freezes up randomly. It's been doing it for a few days... maybe all week by now.

Maybe it's the server then. That'd make 3 of us so far with problems.

Don't have gmail, but I do have a big, bad -23 F to share if you need a break from the heat of the Oz summer!

No, I meant that it's +20F here today. Was -20F yesterday.

Damn Fahrenheit. Sigh...
