google mail (in Off-topic)

Is anyone out there having problems accessing googlemail. I have one of the UK googlemail (not gmail) accounts and the server has been down since last week.

Anyone else and have you any ideas when it will be fixed.
Also can anyone give me an address to contact.

From the Gmail help center:

"I'm outside of the US. Why can't I access Gmail?

Access to Gmail from countries and territories outside the United States may be limited because of proxy issues. If you're not in the US and can't log in to Gmail, try accessing your account at https://mail.google.com."

They apparently won't give out an actual email address to contact them at, instead opting for forms that you must fill out to obtain assistance. They do also give the recommendation that you should try logging into https://www.google.com/accounts/ and then navigating to Gmail.

Hope this helps, Freed.

P.S. If you want to give me more specific information I'd be glad to fill out one of those forms for you.

P.P.S. My Gmail has been working properly, although I'm in the States.

I try and access my mail account from those links and still get the following:

Server Error

We are sorry but Google Mail is temporarily unavailable. We are currently working to fix the problem. Please try logging in to your account in a few minutes

Cant actually see where the forms are to fill in.
