This is true for gmail for anyone that didn’t know.

“.” Isn’t actually counted as part of the email address, so if you had email@gmail.com or e.mail@gmail.com, they’re the same email.

so, how does this work... if I am bob@gmail.com, and I use b.ob@gmail.com, do I get my notices and whatnot delivered to bob@gmail.com?

Or do I actually have to create a new email address?

Correct.

Nope.

bob@gmail.com is the same as b.ob@gmail.com and b.o.b@gmail.com, they are all the same email address as far as google is concerned and any email sent to those addresses will end up in the same inbox.

Test it out with one of your gmails. Send an email to one of you addresses but add “.” somewhere. You’ll get that email to your “non .” inbox.

I do this fairly regularly with one of my main email addresses that I initially created with “.”’s. Sometimes I’ll use the address with “.”’s, and sometimes without for various reasons.
