Rossen Reports: How to make your sensitive emails self-destruct

Gmail has more than 1.8 billion active users, making it one of the largest email providers in the world. If you’re one of them, you might not know some of the coolest features available to you. And when we learn cool stuff, we like to pass it along.Send a confidential emailIf you're writing an email that has sensitive information in it and you're worried about it getting accidentally shared, you can send it as a confidential email. After you’re done writing, click on the padlock at the bottom of the email, which says “toggle confidential mode." The recipient can’t copy and paste the message, print it, or forward it. Set an expiration date on your confidential emailAfter you do the steps above, you can also set an expiration date on the email. That means, once the email expires, the recipient won’t be able to see the message anymore. Just click on the "set expiration" button and you can pick the day and time. If you revisit the sent email, you can also revoke access for the recipient whenever you want. They won't be able to see the message anymore. Schedule an emailThe little arrow next to the "send” button does that. All you do is click it, then click “schedule send” and pick a date and time.Snooze an emailWhen you’re in the email, click this clock icon. Then pick a date and time. The email will then reappear in your inbox at that time. Conversation viewThis is if you like to keep all emails in a thread together. Go to settings, click "conversation view" and select "conversation view on." Let Gmail help write your emailThis is called smart "compose." Gmail will predict words and phrases, and they'll appear as you're typing an email. It will also learn how you write so that it sounds like you. To turn this on or off, go to settings and scroll to "smart compose." Toggle "writing suggestions" on.
