Friends you have been told that "GOOGLE" provides a bug free services and there is no bug or any type of error in any of the services or apps powered by Google. As Google is one of the leading companies in IT industry and spend millions of dollars yearly to minimize the bugs in their services. But as u all know "no one is perfect" and not so Google is.
Recently while e-mailing a friend i came to know about a bug in "GMAIL".
Lets suppose anybody have three accounts that is-
1) yourname@gmail.com
2) your.name@gmail.com
3) yourname.@gmail.com
GMAIL will treat all the three addresses as same address irrespect of the dot(.).
If some one sends mail to "yourname@gmail.com" or "your.name@gmail.com", it will be directed to the "yourname@gmail.com".
That clearly means that if you are sending a confidential mail to an address "firstexample@gmail.com" then a copy of this will be also sent to "first.example@gmail.com".
Note- this bug is genuine and works, but its very difficult to make a new GMAIL account with the same name except a dot(.) as in mostly cases it was already chosen by some-one else.
