user.name@gmail.com is the same as us.er.na.me@gmail.com, too. Far less trivially defeated, as the period has meaning in many other e-mail systems.
I think a bunch of services have caught on the + and . tricks in gmail. I'm not sure but it seems like my attempts have been blocked. Can anyone confirm?
Awesome tip.
