Delay actually sending a email by a few minutes so you have a chance to go back and edit it or 'unsend' if you need to. (And have a method to force it to send immediately if you're sure you won't want to edit it).

- jwegan 16y agoYa i have that enabled, but it only works for a few seconds. Also if I click another link after clicking send (which I usually do, I usually go to inbox) I lose the chance to edit it. I think it would be useful to have the ability to edit the email for a few minutes after you send most times I don't realize immediately there is a change I want to make, but I usually do realize it within 2 minutes.
- anigbrowl 16y agoFair enough! I've just gotten used to seeing the Undo link in gmail...but I've never actually had to use it.
- fjabre 16y agoI believe it's a 5 or 10 second delay for that labs feature. Something more similar to commenting on HN might be interesting. Allowing someone to edit/delete for up to several minutes before the email is officially sent..
- dwwoelfel 16y agoYou can now increase it up to 20 seconds from the "General" tab in Settings. As of now, the only choices are 5, 10, and 20 seconds.
