Do you know that a username in Gmail of the form username@gmail.com is the same as u.s.e.r.n.a.m.e@gmail.com and user.name@gmail.com.

This is really something valuable and this what makes Gmail better than other email servers including Hotmail and Yahoo. It is like a form of security. So nobody can sign up for a gmail account with your name if you have already an account by just adding a dot to your username and maybe misusing it properly.

With this dot-blindness, you can make sure that emails sent to your account even if the sender added a dot to the destination address, will surely reach your inbox,

SO DON’T WORRY.
