Imap was always enabled. I was on my way home and the last time the phone checked the gmail account was at 3:17pm. Afterwards it would give me the message mentioned above

I did a restore on the computer and everything is back to normal. To those who have problems do a restore and the problem should be solved

GMail IMAP was actually down. Mail.app on my Macs also stopped synchronising, although e-mail was still available via Web browsers.

First time for everything I suppose. It's true, they are the new Microsoft :eek: :D
