I have been dependent on Gmail since i joined office. I have been using labels func and the google docs since the first day but the new Forgot attachment and undo send will really prove a life saver as i have been reprimanded by boss many times for sending mails without attachment…
Just love Google Labs!!!

I am always looking for ways to maximize productivity and live out of my Gmail account. I thought I used most of the best features, but now I have two new ones thanks to your post (calendar widget & forgotten attachment detector). Thanks!

Oh, and by the way, I highly recommend Google Voice, love the record feature and the transcribed vm’s.

Another good tool with google is the google suggest. I have used it quite a bit to find good search terms.

Forgotten attachment detector…FINALLY! I am guilty of sending email without the attachment at least 5 or 6 times a week. Now I don;t have to send that “Oops….I’m a moron” follow up email with the attachment.

I agree that the Forgotten Attachment detector is genius. I’ve lost count of the number of times I written ‘please find attached…’ and then forgotten to attach it. Love the Unsend feature too – such a simple idea – effectively holding the email in a buffer zone for a few seconds before releasing it.

I haven’t tried any of these tools yet, but definitely will try out the forgotten attachments first.
