Not if you filter out . and + in gmail addresses.
In any address. Most email services support + and a few support . as well.
I use .in my email addresses with no malicious intent
Sure but in gmail addresses, the dots are ignored, and anything after the + is also ignored. You can add as many dots as you want and will still go to the same address.
It has similar function as "+"
email@gmail.com e.mail@gmail.com em.ail@gmail.com ema.il@gmail.com emai.l@gmail.com etc.
