I have a Gmail [1] account that I don't use for anything other than
1. having claimed
[email protected] as an email address;
2. seeing what spam Google lets through its famed “spam filtering process”
(hint: quite a bit actually, and I suspect Google gets paid to deliver
it);
3. seeing email for other Sean Conners who's friends/family don't know that
[email protected] doesn't go to the Sean Conner they know.
That last category is just a by-product of getting in early enough with
Gmail, and after all this time, I'm still surprised at receiving email
addressed to other Sean Conners (latest one: a betting pool to see when a
pile of snow known as “Mt. Pfeiffer” will melt completely away).
So I load Gmail today and get:
> We’re sorry, but your account is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for
> the inconvenience and suggest trying again in a few minutes. You can view

>
> If the issue persists, please visit the Help Center » [2]
>
> Try Again [3] Sign Out [4]
>
> Show Detailed Technical Info [5]
>
And when I clicked on “Show Detailed Technical Info” I got “Numeric Code: 4”.
Woo hoo!
Way to go, Google! Wonderful technical detail! That helped a lot!
