Meet the new Gmail, now with disappearing messages

[yortsed snacilbuper]

It's been a bad couple of years for email.

You can set a message to expire in 1 day to 5 years, and require the recipient to enter a passcode texted to their phone before they can read it. Confidential Mode emails will open in a special window that doesn't allow the recipient to forward, copy or print the message (though you can still grab a screenshot). There's an option to revoke an email at any time. The tools work even with emails sent to non-Gmail accounts.

1. We switched from Outlook to G-Mail a month ago at work

and it's a mess. Trying to email a document FROM the document itself still pops up Outlook. Printing and saving from G-Mail is a pain. AND G-Mail isn't ADA compliant.

2. How do you email a document from a document?

3. It's a microsoft function

All you're really doing is firing up an email client and auto-populating it with the document. Typically it looks for Outlook. These days you'll get a choice of attaching it to the email, or copying the content into an HTML message.

4. Right...didn't think of that... I use Gmail but w/in Outlook client.

5. That means the association is wrong.

It’s still set to use Outlook as default mail client, not GMail. You can, however, setup Outlook to send/receive to/from GMail accounts.
