您多久发送一次邮件而不先进行质量检查?几乎总是,对吧?好吧,这种过度自信有时会让你陷入尴尬(John Watkins)境地(John Watson)决定把事情从你的胸口拿走,所以你写了一个丰盛的信息,然后在点击发送后的下一刻就后悔了。从拼写和语法错误到格式不正确的主题行,发送邮件时可能会出现一些问题。
幸运的是,最常用的电子邮件服务Gmail具有“撤消发送”功能,允许用户在发送邮件的前 30 秒内撤回邮件。该功能是 2015 年测试计划的一部分,仅对少数用户可用;现在,它向所有人开放。撤消发送功能不一定会回调邮件,但Gmail本身会等待一段时间,然后才会将邮件实际发送给收件人。
如何召回您无意在 Gmail 中发送的电子邮件(How to Recall an Email You Didn’t Mean to Send in Gmail)
请按照以下步骤首先设置撤消发送功能,然后通过向自己发送邮件并放弃它来进行测试。
配置 Gmail 的撤消发送功能(Configure Gmail’s Undo Send feature)
1. 启动您首选的网络浏览器,在地址/URL 栏中输入gmail.com ,然后按 Enter。(gmail.com)如果您尚未登录Gmail帐户,请继续输入您的帐户凭据,然后单击登录(enter your account credentials and click on Log In)。

3. 确保您位于 Gmail 设置页面的常规 选项卡上。(General )
4. 在屏幕/页面的中间,您会发现撤消发送(Undo Send)设置。默认情况下,发送取消周期设置为 5 秒。虽然,我们大多数人在按下发送后的一两分钟内都没有意识到邮件中有任何错误,更不用说 5 秒了。
5. 为安全起见,请将取消发送期限设置为至少 10 秒,如果收件人可以等待您的邮件稍长一些,请将取消期限设置为 30 秒。
6. 滚动到“设置”(Settings)页面的底部(或按键盘上的 end)并单击“保存更改(Save Changes)” 。您将在几秒钟内返回您的收件箱。(Inbox)

2.将(Set one)您的一个备用电子邮件地址(或朋友的邮件)设置为收件人并输入一些邮件内容。完成后按发送 (Send )。
3. 发送邮件后,您会立即在屏幕左下方收到一条小通知,通知邮件已发送(但未发送)以及撤消和查看邮件(Undo and View Message)的选项。
4. 显而易见,单击撤消 (Undo )以收回邮件。您现在将收到“发送(Sending)已撤消”确认,邮件撰写对话框将自动重新打开,以便您纠正任何错误/错误并避免尴尬。
5. 还可以在发送邮件后立即按键盘上的 Z来(press Z)撤回(r)Gmail 中的电子邮件。 (ecall an email in Gmail. )
如果您在按下发送后没有收到“撤消”和“查看消息”(Undo and View Message)选项,您可能错过了收回邮件的窗口。检查已发送(Sent)文件夹以确认邮件状态。
您还可以通过在发送邮件后立即点击屏幕右下方显示的撤消选项来撤回通过(Undo option)Gmail移动应用程序发送的电子邮件。与 Web 客户端类似,当您点击Undo时会出现邮件撰写屏幕。您可以更正错误或单击返回箭头自动将邮件另存为草稿并稍后发送。

Recall an Email You Didn't Mean to Send in Gmail
How often do you send a mail without performing a quality check first? Pretty much always, right? Well, this overcоnfidence can sometimes land you іn an awkward situation if уou accidentally sent the mail to John Watson when it was intended for John Watkins, get you in trouble with your bоss if уou forgot to аttach the file that was due yesterday, or finally decide to get things off your chest, ѕo yoυ compоse a hearty message and regret it the very next moment after hitting send. From spelling & grammatical mistakes to an improperly formatted subject line, therе are several things that can go sideways when sending out a mail.
Fortunately, Gmail, the most used email service, has an ‘Undo Send’ feature that allows users to retract a mail within the first 30 seconds of sending it. The feature was part of a beta plan back in 2015 and only available to a few users; now, it is open to everyone. The undo send feature doesn’t necessarily call back the mail, but Gmail itself waits for a set amount of time before actually delivering the mail to the recipient.
How to Recall an Email You Didn’t Mean to Send in Gmail
Follow the below steps to first set up the undo send feature and then put it to the test by sending a mail to yourself and recanting it.
Configure Gmail’s Undo Send feature
1. Launch your preferred web browser, type gmail.com in the address/URL bar, and press enter. If you are not already logged in to your Gmail account, go ahead & enter your account credentials and click on Log In.
2. Once you have your Gmail account open, click on the cogwheel Settings icon present at the top right corner of the webpage. A drop-down menu enlisting a few quick customization settings like Display density, Theme, Inbox type, etc. will ensue. Click on the See all settings button to continue.
3. Ensure you are on the General tab of the Gmail Settings page.
4. Right in the middle of the screen/page, you will find the Undo Send settings. By default, the send cancellation period is set to 5 seconds. Although, most of us do not realize any errors in the mail within the first minute or two after pressing send, let alone 5 seconds.
5. To be safe, set the send cancellation period to at least 10 seconds and if the recipients can wait a little longer for your mails, set the cancellation period to 30 seconds.
6. Scroll to the bottom of the Settings page (or press end on your keyboard) and click on Save Changes. You will be brought back to your Inbox within a few seconds.
Test the Undo Send feature
Now that we have the Undo Send feature properly configured, we can test it out.
1. Once again, open your Gmail account in your preferred web browser and click on the Compose button at the top left to start writing a new mail.
2. Set one of your alternative email addresses (or a friend’s mail) as the recipient and type out some mail content. Press Send when done.
3. Immediately after you send the mail, you will receive a little notification at the bottom left of your screen informing that the message has been sent (not though) along with the options to Undo and View Message.
4. As obvious, click on Undo to retract the mail. You will now receive a Sending undone confirmation and the mail composition dialogue box will automatically reopen for you to rectify any mistakes/errors and save yourself from embarrassment.
5. One can also press Z on their keyboard right after sending a mail to recall an email in Gmail.
If you did not receive the Undo and View Message options after pressing send, you likely missed your window to retract the mail. Check the Sent folder for a confirmation on the mail’s status.
You can also recall an email sent through the Gmail mobile application by tapping on the Undo option that appears at the bottom right of the screen immediately after sending a mail. Similar to the web client, the mail composition screen will appear when you tap on Undo. You can either correct your mistakes or click on the return arrow to automatically save the mail as a draft and send it later.
