As others said, this post is wrong. I’m another owner of first.last/firstlast since 2004. There was never a period where Google got the dots wrong.
People will forget their middle initial in their email (or others won’t notice it), or they’ll add firstlast as a recovery email or something.
Receiving other people’s email never stops being funny to me. Some of them are grumpy about it (especially the one who paid for and distributed “thousands” of poorly designed business cards.)
More have a sense of humor, and I’ve enjoyed getting to know a few of the other guys with the name over the years.

- 1123581321 2mo agoEither they email me as a test, or the person who emailed me has let me know his real email. In one case, I texted the guy because documents were sensitive and contained his cell. I have a canned reply to these to try to get them fixed, so there’ve been many opportunities for someone to communicate back.
- paul7986 2mo agoFor almost 20 years i have received Ryan Spahn, an actor (his partner is Michael Urie of Ugly Betty & Apple TV's Shrinking) emails as we have the same name and very close Gmail addresses. I have received party invites, limo pick up details, gift card from his mom in law, movie tickets and tons of other personal things that at times make me panic like new airfare chargers for an airliner i flew on a month prior or 1800-flower invoices which i did business with them previously. I have called these businesses once or twice but now just ask him if this was his transaction.
