I'm sorry if this is the wrong forum to ask? I'm UK based and if I wanted to sign up for free gmail account, it would be xxxx@mail.google.com. I would like xxxx@gmail.com, is this possible please? Thanks
uk automatically get googlemail.com i believe due to the fact they couldn't get the domain gmail.co.uk
erm! must be a way of getting an gamil[dot]com account, even UK based. Thinking out loud, maybe using proxies?
As I said, all new accounts are @googlemail.com but, as The Emirates Gallastico rightly says, the @gmail.com variant will still work for the moment. There's talk that Google might lose the gmail.com domain in future.
