More GMail Problems

In my last blog entry I wrote about my impression that GMail is becoming unreliable. Earlier this week I had to disable GMail offline browsing since otherwise I could not log into my GMail account any more. Just now a JavaScript bug seems to have been introduced in GMail: GMail appears as a very small window inside by main browser window. I'm using Firefox 3.0.7.

Is GMail becoming unreliable?

I've been a GMail user since it was on limited trial, and I have always been happy with its speed, reliability and with the sleek user interface. In addition, the GMail spam filter is much more effective than any other hosted e-mail service I've used before (Hotmail, GMX, ...). Almost as effective as my hand-tuned bogofilter I'm running on our Linux boxes :-)

But lately I had the feeling that GMail is becoming unreliable, giving me frequent service errors when logging in or when sending mail. Not due to connectivity problems it appears.
