Using Google Apps


Step 1
❱ The first thing you need to do is download and install the
Boomerang software for Gmail. Open your Chrome browser and
search for “Boomerang for gmail” or point your browser to http://www.
boomeranggmail.com. In addition to letting you schedule emails,
Boomerang offers several other features that we will look at here.


Step 2
❱ With Boomerang installed you will see a new Send Later button
with a Boomerang icon. You can now write an email when it’s
convenient, then schedule it to send automatically. Just write the
message as you normally would, then click the Send Later button.


Step 3
❱ From the popup menu, schedule the sending time with either
the handy calendar picker or text box. The smart menus display
your most frequently used scheduling times for easy access.
Boomerang will then automatically send your message at the
chosen time, without you having to worry about it.

Step 4
❱ You can also set up email reminders. This means taking messages
out of your inbox until you actually need them. At the scheduled
time you chose, the software will bring it back to your inbox,
marked unread, starred or even at the top of your message list.

Schedule Your


Gmail Messages


With an additional bit of software, Gmail can be set up to send specific


emails at scheduled times. This is particularly useful if you are sending


emails to recipients in different time zones.
