Same here, I have first.last since 2005: every combination of dots or not are aliases to my first.last and cannot be registered. There a thousands of first last in the world, and apparently, all of those that have a gmail account are also quite bad at giving their email address... ^^ They probably have firstlast123 and the numbers evade! I receive things daily, from simple accounts miscreated (thanks for the one month Netflix account 6 years ago) to plane tickets, notarized acts for land sell, medical things etc. I tried to respond etc. but no one understands that I'm not their recipient. Crazy.
