A quirk of Gmail email addresses is that Dots don't matter in Gmail addresses - Gmail Help. This saves having to create additional accounts because johnsmith@ gmail.com can also be addressed as: john.smith@ gmail.com, j.ohnsmith@ gmail.com, jo.hnsmith@ gmail.com, …, j.o.h.n.s.m.i.t.h@ gmail.com and all arrive in same mailbox.
NB make sure to note which third-party email address is used with which Virgin Media account as it is needed when signing into My Virgin Media and Virgin Media Mail (webmail)
