From the page: "Just click "Set custom time" from the Compose view. Any email you send to the past appears in the proper chronological order in your recipient's inbox. You can opt for it to show up read or unread by selecting the appropriate option."

Was this possible, but not anymore? Or was it never possible. You know, setting a custom time, which the receiver sees could be possible, but only if the receiver is a gmail user too.

From the page: "Our researchers have concluded that allowing each person more than ten pre-dated emails per year would cause people to lose faith in the accuracy of time, thus rendering the feature useless."

Google's April Fools jokes are the only real reasons to live.

I started to believe this when I saw it yesterday until I saw the testimonials. I didn't think it could go back in time, but I thought that they had a way of making it so that it would appear that it was sent earlier. Now I feel stupid.

From the page: "N = Total emails sent P = Probability that user believes the time stamp φ = The Golden Ratio L = Average life expectancy"

Installing is Easy!
