Gmail doesn't recognize Dots (..) as characters

Today most of us use Gmail, it is one of the email service provided by Google. Earlier too I  have shown you few tricks on Gmail such as “Use Gmail without Internet”.

Today I am going to show you an interesting trick on Gmail.

How many of you know that Gmail doesn’t recognize dots (...) as characters within usernames?

Yes, it doesn’t recognize dots within usernames, so it doesn't matter, if you type dots as characters in your username.

You can access your Gmail account even if you type dot(s) within your username, but your password should be typed properly.

Suppose if your Gmail ID is fazlul@gmail.com, the messages sent to all below email addresses will be dropped in fazlul@gmail.com

fa.zl.ul.@gmail.com

f.a.z.l.u.l@gmail.com

faz.lul@gamil.com

f.az.l.ul@gmail.com

All the above addresses belong to the same person, so there is no any problem even if you type your username with dot(s).

Nothing surprising, just try it with your Gmail account!!!
