I haven't seen this reported anywhere else. So, it may be a problem specific to my account. However, I've been seeing two odd problems related to Gmail for the past week. The first problem is that the Gmail web-based chat is flaking out a lot. You can see an example of that in the screen capture above. The second problem is that the Gmail IMAP4 service (or server itself) is flaking out. For some reason, re-enabling the POP3 service while leaving IMAP4 set to enabled seems to temporarily fix this issue. But, it never sticks. Anyone else seeing similar Gmail related issues?
