Because of legal-ness, you cannot get @gmail.com emails anymore.


The only way to get one would be to either buy one off someone of have someone nice give you theres.





Otherwise you're stuck with @googlemail.com
Reply:You ask you friend to login to his gmail account and send you the invite from that account.





It is seen in bottom left corner of his inbox





If not, ask me, i would be able to provide you one.

Email me to abhirao1@gmail.com and I'll send you an invite.





If I do send you an invite, of course you have to pick this answer as best answer :-P

What you will have to do is that ask your friend who is not in UK to create an account for you and then send you the password so that you can start using it.

Reply:Sounds like your in the UK. It's because of a trademark dispute that 'gmail' is googlemail in UK.
