Gmail by Google is a reasonably effective e-mail
support, but you can nevertheless obtain a number
of features and additional options in Gmail
settings. The checklist is quite large, so we
have listed down here 10 amazing Gmail features
to increase the productivity of your
Emails.   Here's are some Gmail features that you
should really enable at this moment.
3

• Undo Send
•  
• We all have face such situations where you shell
  out an hour composing a bit harsh letter, click
  send and immediately realise that you probably
  should not have carried out that. Fortunately, we
  have Gmail's Undo Deliver feature to save the
  day. This feature is available in Gmail settings.
  
• When an e-mail is sent, Gmail will hold out for a
  predefined number of seconds i.e. for 5, 10, 20,
  or 30, right before sending. The number of
  seconds is configurable in Gmail's settings.
  While this is happening, a user can click on the
  "Undo" link to redeem your mistake.

• Customised keyboard shortcuts
•  
• Who doesnt like keyboard shortcuts? Theres no
  harm is stating the truth that Gmail shortcuts
  are one of our favourite things about this
  mailing service. The keyboard shortcuts enable
  you to send you to create and send your email as
  fast as possible. Gmail is known to add some new
  keyboard shortcuts once in a while.
•  
• On the other hand, if a user doesnt see Gmail's
  default key bindings incredibly intuitive, the
  Custom Keyboard Shortcuts feature which is
  accessible in Gmail settings permits the user to
  customise their own shortcuts from Gmail's
  Settings option.

• Auto-Advance
•  
• In the event you choose a great deal of messages
  at a time, it can be definitely frustrating that
  Gmail usually takes you back for the inbox every
  time you archive, mark as spam, delete, or mute
  an Email. The Auto-advance feature, which you can
  find in Gmail settings, enables you to decide
  what Gmail does in such cases. This way you go
  straight to another Email every time you archive,
  mark as spam, delete, or mute an Email. Though
  many users may find it a small thing, still it
  avoids stress, annoyance and can prove to be a
  very good time saver.

• Unread message icon
•  
• Gmail's tabs blink up whenever you've got new
  Emails, but for a quick look at the number of
  unread emails are in your mail, Gmails' Unread
  Message Icon is an amazing option to use. It is
  really excellent for maintaining Gmail inside a
  pinned tab, so you need to ensure it won't divert
  your attention because in the end, sometimes you
  don't have to be answering Email the moment it
  comes in. You can keep it off, if this option
  makes you to continuously look at the inbox.

7

• Send archive
•  
• Go to Gmail's general settings and choose the
  "Show Send Archive button in reply" option.
  With this option, while you are creating an
  Email, you'll be able to send your mail and
  archive the complete thread in a single click
  which helps greatly to keep the inbox clear and
  tidy.

• Apps search
•  
• If you utilise Google sites or Google Docs, Apps
  Search is a fantastic feature that increases
  Gmail's searching powers to these 2 apps. Like
  that, if you seek for anything in Gmail, this
  option will also show up matching search engine
  results from Sites and Docs in the Gmail types.
  Like that you are able to do all your functions
  related to Google in a single, integrated tab.

• Default Reply All
• Probably the most debatable feature in the whole
  lot, it allows the user to set the default reply
  option to Reply All as an alternative to
  Reply. Generally, when several folks are
  associated with an email thread, one particular
  person will break the whole conversation by
  mistakenly clicking the Reply option in place
  of Reply All, and in such cases, every other
  person attached to the Email before misses that
  conversation.
• You can avoid getting into such disastrous
  situations by selecting this feature in Gmail's
  general configurations. In case you want to reply
  only to a single person, you will continue to be
  able to do that by clicking the Reply All
  button right next to the dropdown menu.

10

• Canned responses
• In the event you end up performing a lot of
  repetitive typing, the Canned Responses lab will
  help you to save some major time. Go to Gmail
  Labs to enable this option, type in the messages
  you send again and again, and then deliver them
  later you can send them with just a click. By
  using filters, you are able to even mail them
  automatically, which makes it a good responder.
• Remember that OS-wide text expansion can be used
  if you have to try this beyond Gmail. However,
  Gmail's canned responses can be employed and it
  doesn't matter what laptop or desktop you might
  be using as these are even available on phone.

11

• Quick links
• Although features such as Multiple Inboxes and
  starred messages are perfect for accessing
  regularly required messages or labels, right in
  the Gmail's sidebar, Quick Links can obtain just
  about anything. As soon as you allow Quick links
  in Gmail Labs, a box on the left will appear
  where any bookmark-able URL in Gmail can be added
  for a single click access, which includes labels,
  messages, saved searches, etc.
