Gmail doesn't recognize dots in usernames, so to Gmail, digg.user@gmail.com and digguser@gmail.com are the same. So while you can create a Gmail username with a dot, if an identical name exists without the dot, he'll get your email! Users have reported this weirdness for many months already, now it's confirmed by Google, albeit, not yet fixed.
I've run into this myself. I got user.name@gmail.com when I've registered username@gmail.com
Have you?

A 3fer day for google. Feel the luv????!?!?!!?!!?!? ;)
Last week I got a confirmation that I had paid a $75 fee for a service I hadn't ordered. I phoned about it and it seems a gent in Chicago has the same Gmail name as I, but without the dot!
