No matter how much dots you put in your GMAIL username, it remains the same

Gmail doesn't recognize  dots as characters within usernames so it does not matter how much dots you add to your Gmail's Username, the Gmail will ignore dots and thus your Gmail Username will remain the same.

You might get surprised to see messages sent to a username which is similar to yours but have dot(s) within username. Well! don't get surprised as Gmail doesn't recognize dots as characters within usernames. :)

Suppose if someone has the email ID like salmankhan@gmail.com, the messages sent to all below email addresses will be dropped in salmankhan@gmail.com

salman.khan@gmail.com
Salman.Khan@gmail.com
Sal.man.khan@gmail.com
s.a.l.m.a.n.k.h.a.n@gmail.com

All above addresses belong to the same person. You can see this if you try to sign in with your username, but adding or removing a dot from it. You'll still go to your account.

So, you can add or remove the dots from a Gmail address without changing the actual destination address and they will all go to your inbox.
