If you don’t like Google’s new addition to Gmail that allows you to make outbound voice calls to phones you can disable this feature and lose the Call phone icon as well.
If you don’t like your emails of the same topic grouped together, you can make Gmail organize your inbox like ordinary clients by disabling the threaded conversation view.
Gmail allows you to cancel a sent email, but it’s default may be too short a time for you. You can extend the cancellation period up to 30 seconds, which should be plenty of time to stop an email that you’ve changed your mind on.
If the resolution and window size of Gmail’s video chat isn’t to your liking, you can enable high resolution video and a larger viewing window to make for a better experience while actually freeing up some computer resources.
Normally, Gmail takes you back to your Inbox when your delete, archive or mute a conversation. This can be time consuming if you are having to deal with a lot of messages. Auto-Advance will automatically move to the next (or previous) email after performing these actions, allowing you to quickly move through your messages.
You can now delegate email rights to another Gmail user. This can be useful if you want to give email access to your spouse or business associate and also give them access to your Contacts.
Lately, everyone seems to be looking into backingup their inboxes for their online email accounts. While this is important, what would happen if you lost all of your contact information? Here’s how to backup your contacts to your computer from Gmail, Hotmail (Windows Live Mail), and Yahoo! Mail to your computer harddrive.
Expecting an important email from your boss, but it’s time to go home? You can set up Gmail to forward the messages from your important contacts by setting up a filter.
Gmail allows you to insert images into the body of an email message instead of just attaching the image. This makes for a better looking email and prevents the reader from having to open an attachment after opening the email.
The Reply by Chat feature allows you (and your contacts) to converse about an email message that you have sent or received, in real time. An added bonus is that if you have Gmail saving your chat history, the chat will be nested in with the rest of the conversation generated by the message.
While Gmail’s search options do allow you to do basic searches for messages within a date range, it still doesn’t give you absolute control over the date part of the query. You have to select a range that is 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 2 months, 6 months or 1 year from a certain date. Instead, use the basic search box and assign the date range directly from there.
If you utilize the Google Tasks feature, you can easily email your task list to friends or family directly from Gmail.
