Hmm some times people send me emails saying "I emailed you but you didn't reply so I'm emailing you again". This also happened for an email about job interview appointment, however I never got a second reply ... just an angry phone call saying I was supposed to be there...

Hotmail to Gmail can take a really long effin' time. It happens to me frequently. I think its actually Hotmail -- double check the spam folder?

I actually never used to have the problem. Just in the last 2 months or so.

either you missed the mail, it went into the spam folder or your email is hard to type and people mistype it
either way, not gmail's fault

my gmail has been so messed up this week. I haven't been getting anything in my inbox whatsoever. Not even macinsiders updates and I usually get 50+ a day from that... I can send stuff from my gmail to myself and that shows up in my inbox but if I were to sign into any other account and send myself an email, it won't work. I went to the gmail help section to see if it said anything and I found someone with a post expressing the exact same problem. But, the solution that she said had worked totally did not for me..
Someone help!

I just found a whole bunch of my emails, unopened and in the trash... but, I know that there were some that were sent to me that did not make it there. These emails were delayed too.. I've been checking all my folders every day.
Gmail how could you have let me down like this!?!?! so sad.

G-mail was down a few days ago, but otherwise it seems to be fine.
