So I set up to use Gmail as a nice way to keep an archive of email that I can use across multiple machines.  Well today Outlook (I happen to be on a PC at the time) gave me a nice alert that stated your account doesn’t support IMAP.  I hopped to the browser and logged in to see what was going on and sure enough that account no longer has IMAP listed on the settings page.

So what happened?  I certainly haven’t moved much content (~150MB over a few weeks) and coming off vacation it hasn’t seen much use at all.  I did a quick search – no luck.  So now I have to wait and see if this comes back or whether something has flagged this account.

Update: Now I notice TechCrunch reports it as well.  And they say it is back.  Off to check again.
