Do you know that
the GMAIL ID is NOT unique- what it means is the same ID can be shared by
several people. You may wonder HOW?
Let me explain: If
a Gmail ID is abcdef@..., and if you place a dot [.] anywhere in between, then
for Google it will mean the same person. But hold on for a moment- the reverse
is not true. If some other person registers an ID like abc.def@..., then it
will be accepted and both will get the mail meant for either. In the first
instance, putting a dot will not make the existing email different, but while
registering the Gmail will think they are different and hence registers the ID.
And both the persons will be able to have their own ID only separated by the respective passwords. Think it, try it. Sometimes I wonder how a big & renowned eMail provider does this.
