Google's Gmail becoming useless for critical business communication

Anyone else realize that some of their Gmail emails are going into the SPAM box of other Gmail user accounts? you might not! The day I posted something on craigslist my account got flagged by Google as a SPAMMER account. Quite the contrary, I never send any unsolicited mail to anyone. Unfortunately Gmail is an unsupported free service and once this happens you cannot remove the flag. So I created a second account and went through all the hassle of that process.

Well I just found out my wife's Gmail account (never having craigslist exposure) was sent to someone's SPAM box. That account rarely gets used. That means EVERYONE is at risk of lost communication as a GMAIL user. As of today I am ditching Gmail because everyone client communication for me turns into $$$ or lost $$$ if I don't get their email (has happened) or they don't get my email (has happened).

Bye Bye Gmail.
