I'm seeing quite a few comments across the web from people saying they were in the 1.5%, which makes me wonder how accurate that number is. Then again, Gmail has a LOT of users, so that could be a very accurate number. We use Google Apps for Business and were experiencing delays of several hours, and I did receive some bounces when sending to others within my organization. Strangely, most of this happened when using Outlook with Google Apps Sync - not when using the web interface. Still, we've been very happy with the service - things like this happen every once in a while. We made do until it was straightened out.

How many of the other 98.5% weren't even aware that anything happened and, thus, haven't complained about it? My mother probably doesn't even have a clue that there was an issue.

No one was in the 1.5%. It was 1.5% of messages. For example, maybe 1/4 of my incoming emails had delays. If that was true of everyone who had delays, now you're looking at 6% of people affected.
