No, neither G-mail or E-mail names can contain periods.
yes it is... i have an AOL and a gmail and all you have to do is the exact thing you do with your current email
Using hotmail and gmail, you can have that setting in hotmail.

The address book is like a contract book in gmail. It can be used to store contacts in gmail. It is above the compose mail where Gmail is written and is a drop down.
Yes. On AOL you can have up to 7 screen names, which would make 7 email addresses. Or you can also have more than one email address with different ISPs.
"First, one would have to access the Google mail website and sign up for a google account. Once the required information is entered and account names and passwords are picked one will then submit that information and an account would be created. Afterwards, one would go to gmail and enter their account information to start using gmail."

Where to begin...? That's the main question when answering this! Let's start with Hotmail. There's Hotmail, sponsored by MSN. You can get an account there for free, but it doesn't have nearly as much space as a Gmail account. Their available domain names are @live.com, @hotmail.com, and @msn.com. Next up is Yahoo mail, sponsored by who else but Yahoo!? They're also free, and their domain name is @yahoo.com. I'm not sure how much space one of these accounts has. There's also your local cable company's email. Domain names will differ, however, they seem to be very much MSN-like. You also have America Online. Their popularity and name has gone down quite a bit in recent years, and not many people know much about them anymore. If I remember correctly, their domain is @aol.com. And of course, you already seem to know about Gmail. They have nearly unlimited storage (I've had my account since 2005 and I STILL haven't filled up all the space!) and personalizable domain names. I prefer Gmail mainly because the interface is sleek, there is a lot of storage, and it is made by Google (a very trustworthy company). That's a little bit of the basics. There is a very nice article on about.com giving a bit better of a review than I can. http://email.about.com/od/freeemailreviews/tp/free_email.htm
Don't use the HTML view. Use the standard view
Gmail names or usernames are unique to everyone. You cannot guess one from the name nor know it. You have to ask the person manually about it.
