Per-user daily / bandwidth / concurrent limit.
Riposte solution
Gmail has returned a 429 Too Many Requests, indicating a daily or bandwidth limit was exceeded. Your application should back off. Catch this error from Riposte and stop further actions for that account until limits reset. Using Riposte's API, you could pause the account (/accounts/{accountId}/pause) once the error occurs, and resume operations the next day or when you're ready to retry.
