Thanks for the information, I would know it.
About a half of a year I tried to create a gmail account from my real ip
 but have had such result (asking for verification). After that I
decided that it is a general rool of the Google to do it, but - with
according to you information, my decision was wrong.
It seems to me that it very difficult to find out why and when they
require that.
Thanks for that information again.
