question about gmail

I have been reading about posts that you change the dots in your gmail account. What exactly does that mean? I have a gmail account but don't understand about the dots.

let's say your gmail address is sunshine@gmail.com
s.unshine@gmail.com, su.nshine@gmail.com, and sun.shine@gmail.com would all go to that address, but be registered as a different e-mail address by the offers.

Gmail accepts emails even when you add a dot to it.

So let's say your gmail address is ilovesunshinerewards@gmail.com, ok? So you do an offer that's not crediting or recognizes your gmail addy. So you can redo an offer (or start off that way, whatever) and add a dot to your gmail address. So you could do i.lovesunshinerewards@gmail.com, or ilove.sunshinerewards@gmail.com. Does that make sense? You'll still get confirmation emails from the offers but it'll appear to them as a new addy. HTH!

Thanks I understand now, and that does help alot, so basically its like having a bunch of email addresses all wrapped up into one.
