Boomerang messaging g mail

You're referring to the "Boomerang" feature in Gmail!

Boomerang is a third-party add-on that allows you to schedule emails to send later, remind you about emails you've sent, and even automatically follow up on emails that haven't received a response. Here are some of the key features:

  1. Send Later: Schedule an email to send at a later time, so you can plan your messages in advance.
  2. Reminders: Set reminders for emails you've sent, so you can follow up on them later.
  3. Follow-up: Automatically send a follow-up email to someone who hasn't responded to your initial message.
  4. Undo Send: Give yourself a short window (e.g., 5 seconds) to retract an email after you've sent it, in case you made a mistake.
  5. Snooze: Temporarily remove an email from your inbox and bring it back later, so you can focus on other tasks.
