What the new Gmail does and how to undo it
What the new Gmail does and how to undo itWhat the new Gmail does and how to undo itIf you use Gmail, you may have noticed that your inbox suddenly looks different. Thats because Google has rolled out new features for the redesign of its popular mail client that are now available to users. Here are some of the more interesting features you can use to go into confidential mode or snooze emails you are not ready to absprache withNew sidebars, snooze features, and self-destruct optionsThe redesign is aimed at making Gmail more seamless with the rest of Google. Now, you have to leave Gmail less to use other Google apps. Apps likeGoogles calendar and the Keep note-taking app will appear in a right-hand sidebar so that you can reschedule that meeting or jot down a note without needing to open another tab.If your mind cannot handle the clutter of hundreds of emails hitting your inbox all at once, you now have the option to Snooze and deal with the emails on your own time. If you get an emai l that you do not want to deal with immediately, you can select the snooze option, so that it will temporarily disappear from your inbox and reappear when you tell it to show up.Dont want that sensitive email lingering in someones inbox? Google said itsnew confidential mode can help with that. It allows you to set an expiration date for messages you send to other Gmail users and revoke access if you do not want them to landsee it anymore.But before you feel too secure, recognize that privacy advocates have come out against the language of the new feature. The Electronic Frontier Foundation said that confidential mode is not confidential, because Google can still see it and you can still see it in your Sent folder. Because Confidential Mode emails arenotend-to-end encrypted,Google can see the contents of your messagesand has the technical capability to store them indefinitely, regardless ofany expiration date you set, thedigital-rights nonprofit wrote.If youre among the people not fe eling the update, you can opt out by clicking Settings in the top right cornerand clicking Go back to classic Gmail. But this is a temporary fix. Whether or not you like the new features, we will all have them eventually.Approximately 12 weeks after the GA general availability announcement in July, any users whove opted out of the new Gmail will be automatically migrated to the new experience, with no option to opt out, Google said in a blog post.close dialogAdvertisement close dialog/* effects for .bx-campaign-1012255 *//* custom css .bx-campaign-1012255 */.bx-custom.bx-campaign-1012255.bx-type-agilityzone .bx-close z-index 2-ms-keyframes bx-anim-1012255-spin from -ms-transform rotate(0deg) to -ms-transform rotate(360deg) -moz-keyframes bx-anim-1012255-spin from -moz-transform rotate(0deg) to -moz-transform rotate(360deg) -webkit-keyframes bx-anim-1012255-spin fro m -webkit-transform rotate(0deg) to -webkit-transform rotate(360deg) keyframes bx-anim-1012255-spin from transform rotate(0deg) to transform rotate(360deg) bx-close-inside-1012255 top 0 right 0 /* KD - Remove padding from video wrapper and set height to 100% */.bx-custom.bx-campaign-1012255 .bx-row-video .bx-video-wrapper padding-top 0important height 100%.bx-custombx-campaign-1012255 bx-creative-1012255 .bx-wrap height auto/* KD - Change positioning to static as that was not necesaary and here you can adjust the height of the video element */.bx-custom.bx-campaign-1012255 .bx-row-video .bx-video-wrapper video position static/* rendered styles .bx-campaign-1012255 */.bxc.bx-campaign-1012255.bx-active-step-1 .bx-creative *first-child width 100%.bxc.bx-campaign-1012255.bx-active-step-1 .bx-creative background-color erkennbarborder-style nonemax-width 900px.bxc.bx-campaign-1 012255.bx-active-step-1 .bx-close stroke whitebackground-color blackborder-style solidborder-color whiteborder-width 1px.bxc.bx-campaign-1012255 .bx-group-1012255-AFvXBOB padding 10pxdisplay blockwidth auto.bxc.bx-campaign-1012255 .bx-element-1012255-J0EiS8Y width auto.bxc.bx-campaign-1012255 .bx-element-1012255-J0EiS8Y *first-child padding 2px 4pxfont-size 10pxcolor rgb(255, 255, 255)text-transform uppercasebackground-color rgb(0, 0, 0)background-color rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.34)
