New Gmail Lab: Got the Wrong Bob? And Four Other Sanity-Saving Labs
Google recently released Got the Wrong Bob?, a new Gmail labs feature that suggests alternate recipients when sending an email to a group.
It's not foolproof and only works when you're sending a message to multiple recipients, but it'll keep you from firing off a rant about your boyfriend to all of your best friends, and accidentally including, say, his mother.
