It's better than sending the bits in the actual email. If you can revoke access to the attachment immediately after sending it, that's an improvement.
I'm guessing ninety-something percent of mistaken emails with attachments are noticed within the first ten seconds after it's sent, so you could really use an undo button. So for that, it's a good solution.
Me, I have the opposite problem. I write emails and forget to include the attachment, which necessitates I immediately send another copy with the attachment. I swear I did that recently and the recipient's GMail account blocked the email and all others from my address. I guess that behavior runs afoul of their spam algorithms.
- m0nty 18y agoI suppose email "undo" is a useful feature. Not sure -- maybe it's one of those great ideas which looks a bit lame at first. Gmail handles outgoing attachments really well. If you type text like "here's the file I promised" or "I've attached a file" it prompts you if you don't, in fact, attach a file.
