Just returned to my Gmail after dinner. Shocked to see 100’s of unread mails in Inbox thats too in 30 mins…
Check time column in following screenshot… are you also having same problem???
Update: This spam attack lasted for around 6 hours. After checking few spam mails I am sure that noboday attacked my email address. During same time frame, spam folder was empty. That makes it further sure that Gmails spam filters were crashed. Everything is normal now… 🙂

I was getting 2-3 spam mail per hour in my inbox till next afternoon… 🙁
Hi Rahul,
can u check the server from which they were sent? I didnt receive any mails of this sort in my gmail.
@Aditya
Problem is almost solved. I have checked servers and all mails were from different servers. Also spam folder was empty at that time.
It only means spam was redirected to inbox… 🙁
