    My GMail accounts are currently giving login errors when my e-mail client tries to send/receive. No problems earlier.

    "I use it for work & now I'm stuck"

    Err... no offence but surely you have at least a couple of other email accounts you can use... and you haven't left the one & only copy of your gmail emails on Google's servers...

    Whilst being no friend of Google or large corporations to put all one's egg in one basket, and a free, no-charge, basket at that seems unwise...

    Cheers!

    Unfortunately I don't think even the mighty google have a crystal ball in their arsenal.

    If email is essential to you then using a free service isn't necessarily the most cost effective solution.
