Gmail Will Let You Play With Fire, Retract Angry Emails

Google knows you are constantly filled with regret following the send of every email. Their new feature will help rectify that.

Like that time on The Nanny when Mr. Sheffield told Fran he loved her and then took it back, Google will let Gmail users "take back" recently sent emails. (Sweet reference, right?)

You simply need to go to Settings and look for 'Undo Send' on the General page. Select 'Enable Undo Send' and you'll soon be able to retract any unwise, hot-headed emails you're certain to feel guilty about later on.

You'll have to act quickly, however. The feature only allows you 30 seconds to hit the 'Undo' switch. Otherwise, there's no way to unring that bell.

If you previously played with the 'Undo Send' function in 'Gmail Labs' - where experimental new features are first trialed - you will see the feature automatically enabled.

For everyone else, enjoy sending angry emails to your enemies and then hitting 'Undo'. It's like taking the high road and the low road all at once.
