Re:Google is testing expiring emails in the new Gmail by vatueil on Wednesday April 18, 2018 @01:14AM (#16864815)
Not at all. Imagine if "myemail" and "my.email" were different accounts: that would result in much more confusion and mis-addressed emails.

It's not as if simply making a typo and entering the wrong email address doesn't happen, either.

Also the relevant standards leave it up to the email host how to handle dots, so it's not even non-standard.
