error message
For the last few weeks I've regularly had an error message appearing on my desktop. It says " Username and password do not match. You provided (my gmail address). Please enter your full email address (including @domain.com)". This has been appearing since I read about a weakness on gmail that allows multiple password attempts and beefed up my password. Does it mean someone is trying to hack my gmail account?

Is this gmail for mobile? If so, I think this may help:

Am I correct that you can still access your gmail or are you not able to?

I would try deleting your cookies and then reboot and try to sign in again.
