Can anyone give me a logical explanation as to why gmail accounts have
a minimum length of six characters?

Accounts must be six to thirty characters.  I can see why they're
implementing an upper limit - but why the lower?  I use sraun.  The
only place I don't use sraun is work, because they said 'our standard
is this, use it' and my bank, which didn't like such a short login id
either.  For the bank, I grit my teeth and came up with something
longer.  Gmail is not, at this point, sufficiently tempting to
overcome my distaste at not being allowed my favorite userid.
