Story: Google Mail hit with account deletion controversy

• 
• 

I have been unable to access my Gmail account at all for well over a week. I have also been unable to get to my e-mail via Mail2web. I was first introduced to Gmail while working as a Medical Volunteer in Indonesia after the Tsunami. Many of the NGO Volunteers started using Gmail out at the PACTEC Tent at the UN Compound in Meulaboh, Aceh Province. Because we were functioning in a major disaster area, that was also a conflict zone at the time, the aid workers often kept critical documents in their Gmail accounts due to the large storage capacity. All of my NGO contacts are in my Gmail account and loosing them will strike a critical blow to my humanitarian goals. When overseas aid workers are often trying to operate in a very precarious environment where comunication is vital. There are numerous humanitarian workers who will be cripled by this current problem with Gmail. Please Google tell us that you are doing something to fix this. Is Gmail down and out for good?
