Google forgets to renew Gmail SMTP SSL Certificate

If you don’t understand the title of this post because of all the acronym mumbo-jumbo just read it as ‘Google messes up’.
Yesterday Search Engine Roundtable reported:
It appears Google has forgotten to renew the certificate, even thought a Google Groups post had a warning to Google that it would be expiring today.
Schoolboy error. It doesn’t mean you should stop using Gmail - it’s still secure, but they just forgot to renew their license. It doesn’t make them bad people. It just makes them disorganised.
