Lock Gmail at certain hours

Have you ever sent a mail, under the influence of alcohol, that you regretted the next day? Now you can avoid those with Gmail.

Gmail have a feature that lets you pick days and time when the sending of mail has a small lock. But don’t worry if you absolutely must send a mail during the chosen time frame, you can unlock by solving a few simple maths problems, within a certain time.

The default times are Friday and Saturday between 10 pm and 4 am, but can easily be changed. You even get to chose a level of difficulty of the maths problems Smile There’s 5 levels. Unfortunately you can’t chose different time frames for different days.

The function is found under the tab Labs, and is called Gmail Goggles

    Smile I don’t think I’ll be needing it either, even though I do drink occasionally, but I’ve never so far gotten the idea to send someone a mail at those times
