I doubt any self-hosted service is going to be more reliable than gmail.
Going on 11 years here with no real issues.
Gmail going down for a few hours each year doesn't count as 'real issues', IMHO..
Gmail.com was down

it does. When I want it to, not when I don't want it to.
So you have redundant internet connections, back-up power generators, a high availability cluster, etc? That seems like a lot of money just to host your own mail server.
Redundant connection - check 3g. Backup supply - check (fucking big aps). Ha cluster - yes i can fail to a vm on my desktop.

Chromium crash on Arch Linux with this message: http://pastebin.com/f9JMsPzT terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::out_of_range' what(): bitset::set [1] 4934 abort (core dumped) chromium singing out of sync for now.. Edit: no crashes since I signed out of sync Edit2: found a more complete stack trace by somebody else: https://gist.github.com/4251938 Bug Report: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/…
Yes Chromium without sync works fine for me too. edit: Gmail works fine for me in Denmark, maybe it is only a regional outage?
my @gmail.com worked but my apps account on a different domain kept crashing. Both accessed from Denmark but with english as the language.

As soon as Yahoo shows me my inbox instead of an ad when I sign in, I'd consider going back. Until then, all the wasted time clicking away from the ad cancels any extra uptime. Luckily I've heard Marissa is actually pushing for this change :)
Well, outlook.com / live.com email is pretty nice nowadays. I'm tempted to forward my personal gmail stuff there for a while to see how it holds up.
Or you could go for a paid service without the ads. And we don't sell your data :)

Wow. One web service goes down and you can't even use your browser. Maybe this is a sign that they're too tightly integrated.
No. Since this is only happening to those that explicitly enable syncing with the web this is just a bug.
I don't have synching enabled and Chrome was repeatedly crashing for me earlier.

Interestingly the bug links to 163267, which is marked private (i.e. a security issue). I've had more downtime out of Google in the past few years than I ever did out of my Yahoo mailbox.

Options -> Mail Options -> Behavior -> Inbox -> Check "Show on Startup"
While you are on that page, enable SSL by default: Turn on SSL: Check "Make your Yahoo! Mail more secure with SSL"

It was general for gtalk.
I was chatting with my girlfriend in Paris and I'm in Montreal right know.
Both gtalk stopped working and we finish the discussion on Skype.
