When
it comes to Gmail addresses, the dots or full stops in the username are
irrelevant to where the email is delivered.
For
example, it doesn't matter whether the email is addressed to chrisjoe@gmail.com
or chris.joe@gmail.com, both will be delivered to the same mailbox.
As
Google explains on its support blog, every e-mail address is unique. People
can't set up an identical account by using a different number or placement of
dots, it says.
In
addition, it doesn't matter if the e-mail is addressed with @googlemail.com at
the end or just @gmail.com — it will end up in the right inbox, according to
the blog.
Are
you surprised? Now you know.
