Re: gmail problems

If you are Receiving emails, it is more likely someone else you know may have been hacked and their account is sending the flood of emails. Here is a link to some info about email from gmail accounts and how it can be compromised. There is also info on how to report this to Google. http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=50200
