[Gmail-Users] Re: New Member Invites Not Working

I've encountered the same problem when inviting a friend to get an
account.
This was tried on January 2nd, 2006 - noon EST)

After he submitted the account information he got the following
message:

>We're sorry. This invitation is not valid. We monitor invitations to
protect our users and to prevent abuse. If you'd like to sign up for
Gmail,
you can now do so using your mobile phone. Click here to sign up (US
only).
Otherwise, please ask a friend with an account to invite you directly.<

Now it seems after several attempts at he has lost several top choice
usernames.

This is very sad.
