I was first messaged regarding this outage a couple of hours back but it was working at my end, but not anymore.

I have been trying this since morning and it appears there are sporadic outages with Google’s Gmail. The horrendous server error keeps popping in the window every few minutes.

The reason is that the site is undergoing maintenance, great. Half my colleagues can access it and I am left staring at the screen, Facebook people if you are reading this please give me back my access.
