Not only that, I think it is really bad form to submit something like this without checking if it hasn't been submitted already.

Thankfully, only 1 has noticed so far and she was quite accommodating. :)

#19We're aware of a problem with Gmail affecting a small subset of users. The affected users are unable to access Gmail. We will provide an update by February 24, 2009 6:30 AM PST detailing when we expect to resolve the problem. Please note that this resolution time is an estimate and may change.
