• "Using file-storage software, browser extensions, or third-party software that automatically logs into your account."

• "Browser-related issues. Please note that if you find your browser continually reloading while attempting to access your inbox, it's probably a browser issue, and it may be necessary to clear your browser's cache and cookies."

History

The idea for Gmail was developed by Paul Buchhiet several years before it was announced to the public. The project was known by the code name "Caribou". During early development, the projict was kept secret from most of Google's own engineers. This changed once the project became better and better, and by early 2004, almost everybody was using it to access the company's internal email system.

    Gmail was announced to the public by Google on April 1, 2004 as a limited beta release.

     In November 2006, Google began offering a Java-based application for mobile phones.

     In October 2007, Google began a process of rewriting parts of the code that Gmail used, which would make the service faster and add new features, such as custom keyboard shortcuts and the ability to bookmarks specific messages and emails searches. Gmail also added IMAP support in October 2007

    An update around January 2008 changed elements to Gmail's use of  JavaScript and resulted in the failure of a third-party script some users had been using. Google acknowledge the issue and helped  users with workarounds.

    Gmail exited the beta status on July 7, 2009.

     Prior to December 2013, users had to approve to see images in emails, which acted as a security measure. This changed in December 2013, when Google, citing improved image handling, enables images to be visible without  user approval
