Gmail 502 Error

I've been getting the error below in gmail for over an hour and a half now. I had to respond to a few emails and I can't even do that now. I wanted to know if anyone is still suffering from this error or has faced it today.

Started around 5 pm Eastern time and its about 6:30 pm est, still no fix to this - now i wished yahoo was my primary email lol - that's still working.

and i am asking because I have two accounts - 1 personal (the one that gets this error) and the other for miscellaneous stuff which works fine so I am a bit confused on whether they are picking out email accounts or just my account.

never got it or ever heard of someone getting it.

they fixed it last night - took them over 3 hours though

i am a part of a few web master sites so i was just surfing around a few after i made this thread and yea. a lot of people had the same error

That's stupid.
Were they doing maintenance or something?

no then all the gmail accounts would have been down - it was just some of the accounts that went down like that - and only 1/2 of my accounts did that

that is odd I never had that error

neither have I thats odd

Well the first time I'm even hear that one but I didn't have any such a problem.
