GMail sucks.

OK, you might try this. Prefix your user name which is usually your
email address with 'recent:' sans quotation marks. Yes, there is a colon
after 'recent'. Therefore, your user ID would resemble:

    recent:your-email-address

See if that helps. If that doesn't help, you might want to use your own
ISP or get a reliable free email service.
