This is very useful if you accidentally forgot to attach a document or having the wrong recipient for the email. I would recommend enabling this feature. It may save you some embarrassment down the road.

Here is how to enable “Undo Send” for your Gmail account.

Step One: Log into your Gmail account.

Step Two: Click the gear in the right hand corner and go down to Settings.

Step Three: Once Settings is opened click the General tab and you will see an Undo Send Option.

Check the box enable undo send. You can specify how long you want Undo Send to be available. You can choose between 5-30 seconds.

Scroll down to the button of your page and save settings.

Now when you send an email you will have an option up top to undo send. 

If you decide to recall one of your email messages you will see the following pop-up.

Traditionally, when you want to email someone you needed to get their email address. Google announced a few changes this week on their blog. Gmail will now suggest your Google+ contacts as recipients even though you don’t know their addresses. Lets stop and think, who really needs this? My friends have my email address and the people that don’t have it, really don’t need it.

By default for most people, Google has the “Email via Google+” option, set to “Anyone on Google+” can email you.  I am going to set that option to “only my Circles” can email me, without my address. I would recommend you to do the same. Most people I know can’t keep up with their email inbox already. Why would you want more random email? Don’t you get enough social updates about people you don’t care about already? 

Here is how you change the setting of who can send you email via your Google+ account. Drop down the little gear icon in your Gmail account and click Settings. Click the General tab and you will see half-way down the page, the option, Email via Google+. Click the drop down menu and you can choose between Anyone on Google+, Extended Circles, Circles, or No one. Choose the best option for you and save your changes.

This isn’t the worst thing to happen, but why does Google automatically set the option to “Anyone on Google+” can email me. You think they would respect our privacy, but then again Google is Google, and they can do anything.
