    For some days I have been receiving mails sent to other address the difference between that address and mine is a single dot. When I researched further, I found that its a functionality, how GMAIL works. Read from here.

    Does this mean Google mail is not secure?

    I get emails sent to other people regularly. People just need to be more diligent in their contact info maintenance
