Yes but I imagine most services would spot that as an invalid address? Although it's worth trying something like

    [email protected]
To see if it passes as a valid address. Don't use this for evil, okay?

No, not multiple dots in a row. They still have to be between two non-dot characters.

Two dots in the email instead of one:

    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    ...
