Gmail emails are delayed or not sending to iCloud

Really? What did you see in the media? Where? (TV? Radio? - what station?)

FYI I followed up with the senior advisor that I spoke to on Saturday. He isn't working today, so I left a message asking for an update as this mornings test messages have not yet arrived, so I am still having this problem.

I've been experiencing the same issue. Was made aware of it my friend trying to email me from gmail account and all her emails sent to my @me.com and @mac.com bounced back. Apple/Google - please work it out asap!

Here's a news story: http://9to5mac.com/2015/03/17/icloud-gmail-delivery-issues/?utm_source=twitterfe ed&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%…

I just got off the phone with Apple (was speaking my 4th senior advisor). He contacted engineering and they told him that everything should be working now. I told him that nothing had changed and that nothing was working. I did a bunch of test with him and he's going to tell engineering that there's still a problem. I've sent so many tests now that I honestly can't hardly remember what's going on anymore. My gmail inbox if stuffed delayed and/or failed notification emails.

MINE IS FIXED! Working perfectly now. Keeping my fingers crossed that it will continue. The advisor I spoke with did talk to engineering and forwarded all my test mails to him. Maybe they saw the problem.

I did make one change to my gmail settings but I don't think it had anything to do with getting it fixed, but just in case ... What I did was remove my reply to address. It was the same as my gmail address so it was unnecessary.

This is just an image of what it looks like.

All my delayed emails are flooding into my mac account.

I'm having the same issue, and I reported it to Apple. BTW, the sender's gets this message even though the email eventually goes through:

From: Mail Delivery Subsystem <mailer-daemon@googlemail.com>

To: [email address] @gmail.com

Subject: Delivery Status Notification (Delay)

This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification

THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE.

Delivery to the following recipient has been delayed:

[email address] @me.com

I just got off the phone with Apple support in the US (I'm based in the UK). Was passed on to someone who knew about the issue. He said Apple and Gmail are working on a solution but they have no information when it might be fixed. Hopefully within the next 24h.

Mine seems to be working with test emails from my secondary gmail account. I hope some of the older emails that I never received will make it through at some point.

Mine are coming in at least all the ones that didn't end up with failure instead of delay. Pam

Is it safe to say Pam that I can re-enable forwarding now that it seems to be fixed?

So I just wrote myself a test email and still not working....bummer! Your case must be special, I guess....

I called them and they said they were aware and I now see that I think it's fixed for me. I read Xaipete's post and had my mom email me from her gmail account twice and they both came through instantly. One had an attachment and one without.

Going to run some more tests before I start emailing clients but I think it's fixed.

Did you enable forwarding and put in the verification?

The first few had slight delays but after that it was almost immediate. I think it's fixed. I don't know what the problem was. I'm going to email the advisor and ask but not until tomorrow because I've got to make some bread for St Patrick's day. Hooray if it's working again! Pam
