1. REPENTING OVER AN ALREADY SENT MAIL? JUST UNDO IT.

How often do we find cursing ourselves over an unintended mail sent in haste? It happens to the best of us. Many a time we inadvertently send an e-mail which was not supposed to be sent. At times like this, what won’t we give to have that mail reverted or unsent? What if we told you that it is actually possible.

Well, although it’s practically impossible to undo or revert back an already sent email on Gmail, but Google offers a feature on Gmail which sort of provides the users with a small window in which you can undo a sent mail. Wondering how you can do it? Just follow these easy steps to undo an already sent mail on Gmail:

STEP 1: Open your Gmail account on your browser.

STEP 2: Open Settings by clicking on the settings icon on the upper-right corner of your Gmail Window as shown in the figure.

STEP 3: A drop down menu will appear. Select Settings from within the various options.

STEP 4: Now in the next window, scroll down till you find the Undo Send option.

STEP 5: Now Enable Undo Send by ticking the box beside it. You can select a Send cancellation period from between 5, 10, 20 or 30 seconds as per your wish.

Please note that by enabling this feature, Gmail will provide you with an additional few seconds up to a maximum of 30 seconds in which you can undo a sent mail. But once this period expires, there is no way by which you can unsend or retrieve back an already sent e-mail.
