Am I alone, or is anyone else having trouble with Gmail's POP3 access? Getting an error message and have multiple gmail accounts using thunderbird.



Error Message
Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server pop.gmail.com responded: Temporary system error. {XDH}

(CLICK OK)

EDIT:
Getting the same error message using Opera's pop3 client.

IMAP is awesome, but it takes a lot of bandwidth to make it work in a seamless manner.

I started getting an invalid user or password error when checking it on my iPhone earlier... then I saw this.

It was down for me as well, but it's back now. I had a paper due at noon and couldn't send it in. Let's hope my professor believes me when I say Gmail was down or doesn't care that it was 25 minutes late.

I can attest to it being down long before this thread started. Point him/her to this thread.
