digitalpbk$ nslookup smtp.google.com Server: 8.8.8.8 Address: 8.8.8.8#53 server can't find smtp.google.com: NXDOMAIN SMTP servers are down for me. Anyone else?
NXDOMAIN wouldn't be server down, that's no DNS record. Still won't work, but different (much bigger) issue.
I thought I'd give them a call to find out whats going on, however to call them I need my support/admin pin - which is only accessible from the admin portal and without it they won't answer the phone. Nice.

I'm pretty sure the 'bigger' issue here is that it's smtp.gmail.com - smtp.google.com is, I believe, always down on account of not existing. :P

Your only copy of your customers, is in a third party reseller control panel?
Of course not. Just the fastest way to get them! Fortunately, Confluence, Autotask, and my memory are all still intact!
When all else fails, this is the true old school solution. :-)
