Gmail BETA
I still have [religious figure]@gmail.com
The account is completely overrun with spam. And there are about 20 people who seem to think it is their actual email address and I get like legit power bills and stuff on it.
For me, gmail beta in college. Also my first gmail account got banned for sending myself too many invites to make more accounts… to make GameFAQs accounts. >___>
… how many accounts did you make? I made a new one every six months or so back then
Gmail account is firstname.lastname and neither of them are rare.
Even though I don’t use Gmail anymore I keep that account alive.
Fun tip, dots in a Gmail address are ignored, so you can also use firstnamelastname, first.name.lastna.me, or any other combo to receive mail at
Yeah but it used to not be ignored so now me and this random person with my name basically share an email address. We don’t get each other’s emails all that often somehow. We first chatted years ago when I got an important email for a job she applied for (soon after they started ignoring the dots), and she seemed decent so I didn’t change it. Definitely a huge risk but here we are.
