+beejay&esskay Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 I had a PQ generated at 11AM PST today. Normally these arrive at gmail "immediately"...but it hasn't arrived yet. I've tested sending an e-mail from another account to gmail and it arrived normally. Is there some throttling gmail is doing to Groundspeak? Link to comment

Nope, you PQ was successfully delivered to Gmail within a few seconds of being generated: Feb 28 11:01:45 signal postfix/smtp[11084]: 532479F6EA: to=<x>, relay=gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[72.14.253.27], delay=1, status=sent (250 2.0.0 OK 1172689305 y11si1997631pod) Elias Link to comment

I've tested sending an e-mail from another account to gmail and it arrived normally. Is there some throttling gmail is doing to Groundspeak? I've gotten about 15 GC emails to my Gmail account today. No delay that I'm seeing. None were PQs though. Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 Thanks, Elias. Sorry to trouble you. I do have it. And from the time on it would appear it was there all along...except I didn't see it and GSAK didn't download it. I don't know if it was possible there was some delay between gmail and me...but in any case that wouldn't be your problem. Thanks again. Link to comment

I don't know if it was possible there was some delay between gmail and me...but in any case that wouldn't be your problem. Thanks again. I pulled two pocket queries to Gmail, one in the afternoon and another just a short time ago. Normally they come pretty quickly but neither have. Link to comment
+hardwire Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I did 5 PQs and they all say they have run (2/28/2007 4:37:07 PM ) but not a one has shown up in Gmail... I sent a test email from an swbell account and it showed up within 10secs in Gmail.... I wonder if Gmail is holding them to back.. Seems like GC is doing it's part..... Link to comment
+Jurgen & co Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) 1 PQ Built 2/28/2007 3:26:15 PM was just arrived in gmail. So there was a delay about 3 Hours. Gmail says 00:26 (3 uren geleden) But my time was 3:40 Edited March 1, 2007 by Jurgen & co Link to comment

+hardwire Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I guess that is what I get for running my limit of 5 before figuring out something was wrong.... Time for bed... Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 I don't know whether to be happy or sad that you are confirming that something is going on a gmail with e-mail from Groundspeak. Thanks for posting your experiences. I guess we'll just have to see what happens tomorrow. Link to comment
+horsegeeks Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Well my two PQs showed up in GMAIL at 6:23PM and 7:23PM it SAYS but they definitely weren't there last night. It has to be some kind of GMAIL problem. Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 I have 4 PQs that ran this morning, 2 at 1:15 and 2 at 1:20 PST. One that ran at 1:20 was received "immediately". The other 3 haven't shown up, 4 hours later. I sent a PQ from another e-mail account to gmail and it arrived immedately. I can't find any place to report this to gmail except to register and post something in a discussion group. Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 I found where to report gmail delays: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/request...port+your+issue. I submitted one of my delays today (and mentioned other users were having trouble from Groundspeak.com) My "immediately" received note above was incorrect. It arrived before I checked this morning, but since gmail displays the time before the delay it only appeared to be immediately. Here's the relevant portion of a delay today: Received: by 10.114.192.10 with SMTP id p10cs368881waf; Thu, 1 Mar 2007 05:30:55 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.114.155.1 with SMTP id c1mr48573wae.1172740850835; Thu, 01 Mar 2007 01:20:50 -0800 (PST) Return-Path: <contact@geocaching.com> Received: from signal.Groundspeak.com (signal.Groundspeak.com [66.150.167.157]) by mx.google.com with ESMTP id n22si3879529pof.2007.03.01.01.20.49; Thu, 01 Mar 2007 01:20:50 -0800 (PST) Link to comment
+2Wheel'in Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I too am experiencing PQ delays with my GMail account. I submitted a PQ last night that wasn't delivered until this morning, and submitted another about 0930 EST which still hasn't shown up. They were generated immediately by GC.Com. Regular GC.Com mail is coming through just fine..........sigh. Bill Link to comment
+Jurgen & co Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I just made a new PQ it was delivered immediately. But i am still waiting for some other although the are produced the are stil not in my gmail. Link to comment
+2Wheel'in Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I see there's been another thread started concerning PQs and GMail...so the delays must still exist - I know they are for me. Certainly not a Groundspeak problem either...I have 3 PQs pending (all generated) for delivery to GMail...each more than 4 hours old and none received. Requested another and had it sent to an alternate (not GMail) e-mail...bingo, received within 2 minutes. All my other Groundspeak mail is arriving in a timely manner............sigh. Sure hope GMail hasn't started throttling. Bill Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 The PQs are delivered to gmail which accepts them, so it's not the standard throttling (that Groundspeak could see.) The delay is within gmail. I finally received my last PQ that ran early this morning. Run times and time that gmail delivered to me are: 0120 - 0321 0120 - 0530 0115 - 1057 0115 - 1318 Link to comment
+Prime Suspect Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 I ran 2 PQs that I only run very occasionally. They both arrived in my Gmail account. I futzed up the dates, and had to re-run them. So I fixed the dates on both, generated copies of them, and submitted the copies to run. Only the second one arrived. I re-copied the first one, and submitted it. No sign of that one either yet. It's been a couple of hours now. Link to comment
+gh patriot Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I have two pq's generated daily and they were last generated yesterday and I recieved them in my gmail acount within a minute. My pq's havn't yet generated on gc yet (march one) but i will post If they generate and I have a delay getting to my gmail inbox. I really hope they aren't throttling because I haven't had any problems yet (knocking on wood). Link to comment
+2Wheel'in Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Mine finally arrived after a 9 (nine) hour delay!! Guess I better not count on running a PQ right before I plan on departing for caching Bill Link to comment
+hardwire Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 Today, I be smarter and send them to my Yahoo account instead of Gmail.. which is still waiting for the 1st PQ for today... Link to comment
+gh patriot Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 I had a pq generated at 12 04 eastern and recieved it in gmail at 12 04 eastern. However, one of my snow patrol pq never generated on 3/1. My pq that generated at 12 04 was techincally on 3/2 but not on pacific time where they originate from where it was still 9 04 pm. so i guess gc still has a little under 3 hours to get me my snow patrol pq to make it on 3/1.

+beejay&esskay Posted March 2, 2007 Author Share Posted March 2, 2007 (edited) Four PQs generated this morning (March 2) were delivered immediately. Maybe the problem is resolved. I haven't heard from gmail, but will post their response here if I ever do. [Edited to add:] I got the same "it's fixed" message from gmail this afternoon.

+2Wheel'in Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 I received the same reply from Google (regarding my GMail PQ delays) that Stunod received...seems to have done the trick here too...getting generated PQs within minutes now. Bill Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 It may be happening again with gmail...but I see other threads reporting problems that don't make it clear who they are using for e-mail. I had 4 PQs run this morning at 0351, 0351, 0356, 0357. I received the 0351 one with (from the header) no delay. Once I get one of the others I'll be able to tell from the headers if this is the previous gmail problem or something new. Link to comment

+Bigwaves Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Using Gmail. Ran 5 PQ's around 8pm 3/5. They showed generated on the PQ page. Today 12 hours later still nothing. No probs in the past. I will attempt again today. I am leaving on my trip tomorrow! I have received new cache notifications Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 I will attempt again today. I am leaving on my trip tomorrow! I'd suggest a different e-mail provider if you have a choice.

+creacher Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I too had a PQ sent to a different email address (other than gmail) and nothing has been received. tried sending an email to myself through the GC profile page and that was not delivered either. Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 E-mail test from Groundspeak to a non-gmail account went through immediately. Link to comment
+Bigwaves Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 After changing my email AGAIN and 4 attempts to send a validation, I have now validated a new email. Out of 4 validation requested, 2 goth through, one said it was old and to use the newest mail, it never came so I did it a forth time. Now validated again. SO, will alll my backed up PQ's start to pour into my new address?? Or are they waiting to got to the OLD address? OR do I have to requests them again, and hope the come tomorrow? They already show generated for last night (never came) and today (never came.) Link to comment
+northernpenguin Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 E-mail test from Groundspeak to a non-gmail account went through immediately. Added contact@geocaching.com as a contact in gmail (as the Google people recommend to whitelist someone) and it's not having any effect - no mail received since 2:03 AM yesterday morning. Same effect on my Google on my Domain accounts too. Pocket Query mail is also not being delivered to my sympatico.ca mail address at this time. Perhaps this would be a good time to, oh I dunno, implement a "Download GPX File" link on the Pocket Query summary screen? Link to comment
+geospyder Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 Another Gmail cacher not receiving PQs. Dang - that was the whole idea of switching to Gmail for geocaching since Charter Communications was the original problem. Worked great for a while. Below are the four I created last night and the times they were generated. Haven't received any of them. 3/5/2007 8:21:18 PM 3/5/2007 8:34:58 PM 3/5/2007 8:21:29 PM 3/5/2007 9:10:44 PM Just created a new one 3/6/2007 9:09:22 AM. Let's see if it makes it through.

+Liyah Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I am having problems too receiving PQ's. I ran 2 last night about 10pm to a yahoo account and today I still haven't received them. I just ran 2 more to an AOL account and haven't received those either. I am supposed to leave today to go on a trip for work and caching. Link to comment
+sTeamTraen Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I've just this minute received a couple of Gmails from geocaching.com after what looks like a 20-hour delay. They were just watchlist things, though. I don't know if there are simultaneous issues called "PQs" and "Gmail". Link to comment
+beejay&esskay Posted March 6, 2007 Author Share Posted March 6, 2007 I recently received my 3 PQs. It appears that this time the holdup was between Groundspeak and gmail, not within gmail. Link to comment
+sTeamTraen Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 I recently received my 3 PQs. It appears that this time the holdup was between Groundspeak and gmail, not within gmail. I also just received a My Finds PQ which goes to another ISP, not Gmail. So maybe there was a more general outgoing mail problem. Link to comment
Guyute1210 Posted March 6, 2007 Share Posted March 6, 2007 (edited) I put a cache in the queue to be pre-reviewed before I submit it to the DCNR. I checked the cache first thing this morning, and it's been looked at with a note back from the reviewer. Well that was 12:55 AM as what the email says it was sent. I recieved it 1:13 PM. That's over a 12 hour delay. Something is wrong here. Edit: Looks like this is a Groundspeak issue looking at the header: Delivered-To: emailnameremoved@gmail.com Received: by 10.114.112.5 with SMTP id k5cs1022969wac; Tue, 6 Mar 2007 10:13:01 -0800 (PST) Received: by 10.114.75.1 with SMTP id x1mr1818458waa.1173204781450; Tue, 06 Mar 2007 10:13:01 -0800 (PST) Return-Path: <noreply@geocaching.com> Received: from signal.Groundspeak.com (signal.Groundspeak.com [66.150.167.157]) by mx.google.com with ESMTP id q18si20163994pog.2007.03.06.10.13.01; Tue, 06 Mar 2007 10:13:01 -0800 (PST) Received-SPF: pass (google.com: domain of noreply@geocaching.com designates 66.150.167.157 as permitted sender) Received: from hal.Groundspeak.com (hal.Groundspeak.com [66.150.167.136]) by signal.Groundspeak.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8C9991C57ED for <emailnameremoved@gmail.com>; Mon, 5 Mar 2007 21:55:49 -0800 (PST) Received: from mail pickup service by hal.Groundspeak.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Mon, 5 Mar 2007 21:55:49 -0800 Notice it was "Recieved by hal.Groundspeak.com at 21:55 on Monday 5th.
