Google Mail not syncing

Nokia Lumia 900, Win 7.8, worked just fine with Google Mail. As of yesterday, with no OS or other changes, the phone will not sync or send emails with 'native' mail application. I tell it to sync, and it just sits with the 'sync' indicator and one dot, but won't connect. Any ideas?

Re: Google Mail not syncing

Wow lumia 900... Ehm never used the OS, but I"m guessing there should be an "accounts" option under settings? Try to remove the google account (maybe long tapping on it might provide the option). Otherwise the only way to remove the account is by doing a hard reset, but that would remove all accounts and other data

Same here, except I have Lumia 610, Win 7.5.

Is it possible to get at some application logs in Windows Phone?

I never had problems with Gmail sync (via IMAP) until about three weeks ago. It stopped syncing suddenly (I was seeing the status "Synchronizing." with one dot instead of the tripple-dot "progress bar" behaviour). Two days later I gave up, removed the email account, added it back, but there was no improvement. After another week (with no email on my phone) it suddenly started working miraculously - no idea what had changed. Then, after another week, it stopped working again, which is where I'm now.
