This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
" is treated the same as "
This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
". In fact, Gmail is not even case sensitive, so "
This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
" is the same as "

"! So, not only did you get the email account name you wanted, but you really got more!
