    Yeah that’s signing in, so your username must match. There are reasons why you should not use sign in with Google, mostly to do with security and privacy. In which case you can sign up for an account using as many or as few dots as you like.

    For just receiving mail this works universally.

      If someone has the email account password your security is already fucked. If they don’t then there’s no way to pop your oauth unless the client is shit. If the client is shit you shouldn’t give it your credentials.

      SSO is not a security vuln.
