I’ve got a problem with getting another persons gmail. I am 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> and I 
occasionally get email to 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> but this is 
different person. I discovered it with a Vendor rewards account where I got an 
update and logged (had to recover a password, hmmm) and found stuff I didn’t 
recognize. Searched through a bit more and found a name and city. Person 
actually lives 60 miles down the road. Then realized it wasn’t my email 
address. So I called the vendor and the problem seemed to get sorted out. But 
it continues with other vendors. I started getting facebook friend suggests for 
people I have no clue about. Sure enough at the bottom of the email it says it 
was sent to [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>. 
Recently got from another vendor, one which I’m pretty sure the original 
enrollee would need to get. I don’t get email all the time for this person (no 
messages from other persons). The errant messages all say they were sent to 
[email protected].

So is it the vendors or gmail? I could see some company dropping my “.” and 
sending my email to the other person, but why this way? Can guarantee the gmail 
online help center doesn’t cover this one.

Thanks for any help
