This afternoon I suddenly can't send to gmail addresses. I haven't changed anything. Even if I reply to an email that I received from a gmail address they are now bouncing back. They come back with the following (xxxxx inserted for private information):

Your message

 From:         XXXXXX [my email address]
 To:           Laura  < xxxxxx@gmail.com>
 Subject:      Andrea's email
 Sent:         Tue, 15 Dec 2020 14:50:38 -0600
 Securence ID: 1608065439382-017-00474880

did not reach the following recipient(s):

xxxxxxx@gmail.com

A widely reported (new for today 12/15/20) problem. I can't send emails to my own gmail address - they bounce. Now seems fixed, until the next gmail problem.

Gmail is having some outages, so probably it's not you, it's them.
