Here is an interesting tip brought to my attention by my latest Maximum PC magazine. It is well documented that Gmail ignores any extra "." s added to the username portion of an email address (example: me@gmail.com is the same as m.e@gmail.com). These extra dots are, however kept when the mail is delivered and can be used as criteria for a filter. In this way if you give a company your email address with some pattern of extra .'s you can find out if they are the ones putting you on a SPAM list or simply filter for their email.
Handy!
