Yes, high traffic of an abusive nature, i.e. google's email servers
spew out a lot of spam. Just because they're a big company doesn't
mean they should get special treatment when they're sending spam.
Google should try it bit harder to fight their abuse problem.
It seems the year began with major provider's user accounts being
hacked. More than just speed is needed to defend these services. Other
services that send password reset links via email may also want to
rethink this strategy, in light of the situation. Clearly, the accounts
are not being disabled.
