A lot of Gmail email addresses, yet only 1 Gmail account.

February 5th, 2009 by admin Leave a reply »

 Basically Gmail strips all .’s out of an email address when it receives the email. So you can essentially make 100s of different email addresses out of only 1 gmail address by simply taking your current email and adding .’s to it. For example: exosusrocks@gmail.com and making it e.xosusrocks@gmail.com, e.x.osusrocks@gmail.com, so on and so forth will all still go to exosusrocks@gmail.com.  It comes in handy when say you want to create a new user on a forum but don’t want to have to create a new email address.

    Ah good point. I’ve known about that as well as the fact that you can add + at the end of your address and ad more text, for example exosusrocks+facebook@gmail.com, exosusrocks+adwords@gmail.com, etc…But it never crossed my mind to use it for site logins…
