@thecreativeone91 I like it, at least until I host my own when I win a C@C server
Dont think I'd run a mail server there. Its slow. And I doubt they run backups either.

No backups. You have to take your own.
And they use SAN, so beware!

It'd be more of a learning experience, point taken about backups.

That sounds nice. I'm looking into setting up my own domain and thinking of email too. I'll keep it in mind

I had to take it off of my phone. Since GMail can't filter incoming emails, it sends so many to my phone that the phone stops working.
I had to start sending alerts to my personal email on Office 365 so that I could receive them.

Can you try accessing it from a different route? Eg VPN instead of direct?
No idea why that would make a difference -
@scottalanmiller Not seeing any issues here with gmail. Also, you can filter incoming emails. Look under Setting > Filters, and use the option to Skip the Inbox (Archive it).

Yeah, the archiving part of it always confused me but that's just their syntax/semantics.

Yeah, that is what I am trying to do but it doesn't work. GMail freezes up. Google doesn't appear to have enough processing power to archive my email. It seems to be archiving new mail, but it can't archive the existing mail. It just doesn't work.

It's more than that. It's an intentionally useless system design. It's not semantics. It's not a new word for something other email systems do. It's a means of hiding the fact that it lacks the most basic features.
