Here’s something I wasn’t aware of. Google have been in ‘neogitiations’ with a UK company over their trademarked name ‘gmail’ and have been unable to resolve the dispute - I wonder how much money we’re talking here??? Anyway the upshot of it is from today onwards new UK Gmail users will now be @googlemail.com and not @gmail.com. It still remains unknown if existing UK @gmail.com user accounts will be migrated to @googlemail.com. What a mess!!

thats real bad…
probably, they will have some mechanism to autodirect emails to @googlemail.com ids, for existing users…
