Despite the years that email has been with us, its use is still in force for most users. All this despite the success of other online platforms such as instant messaging, P2P networks , or social networks. Thus, if we must highlight a service of this type, without a doubt that is Google’s Gmail, which we normally use from the most used browser that is Chrome.
The Internet has become a key element both professionally and more specifically, since it allows us to carry out all kinds of tasks. For this we regularly use all kinds of applications and platforms that are helpful to us when taking advantage of everything that this element offers us. Among the many utilities that we find here, one of the most widespread is the fact of being able to communicate with other people in real time and at no cost.
For all this, as we tell you, we can use different methods, and although not as immediate as others, one of the most used in email . In turn, in these times, as we mentioned earlier, we can draw on a good number of proposals of this type.
Thus, when sending an email to another person, the first thing we do is enter our email client. The most common proposal of this type for a while, is Gmail. So here we just have to write the message and send it, all in a few seconds.
Normally, when sending an email in a few seconds it will reach the recipient, although that does not mean that it will be opened at that precise moment, as many of you already know first hand. Of course, it may be the case, something more and more common, that we do not want that message that we are sending now, to reach the recipient at that moment. For whatever reason, we may want it delivered on a specific day and time .
Chrome extensions to schedule emails
We have several extensions in Google’s Chrome browser that help us carry out these tasks that we discussed. These will be of great help to us in order to program the emails in said browser when using Gmail.
GMailer – Mail-track
On the one hand we find Gmailer , an extension to program messages with other additional functions in Chrome. Thus, it also allows us to check whether the recipient has read the email, monitor it, or obtain information from the authors of the messages received.
Gmelius
But at the same time, in order to increase the possibilities in this regard, we can also use another similar solution. This is the case of Gmelius , a more complete alternative that will allow us to schedule the sending of emails from Gmail, in addition to other additional functions.
Among these additional functions, we can highlight the possibility of keeping track of emails, customizing the Gmail interface, detecting email tracking, among other things.
In order to use the full functionality of Gmelius, all you have to do is install the extension in Chrome. Then Gmelius will be integrated into our Gmail account so that we can schedule emails, among other additional tasks.
Boomerang for Gmail
On the other hand we find Boomerang for Gmail, another very popular platform in this sense that allows us to delay sending emails through Gmail. In addition, as most of its users already know, one of its main characteristics is that it is very easy to use once we start it.
Thus, once installed, when creating a new email message in Gmail, we will see a button that allows us to schedule the delivery. This is precisely what we are looking for here, so we will always have it at our disposal. Of course, using this extension we can only postpone a total of 10 shipments.
To be able to use this delay of mails, we only have to write it in the conventional way, but next to the usual send button, now we will see that a new one is located. This comes in red and corresponds to this that we just installed .
Right Inbox
This is another extension for Chrome that allows us to program the Gmail platform to send email messages. At the same time they will be of great help to us when sending recurring email messages, that is, at different time intervals. This will allow us to take full advantage of our email platform.
Furthermore, this proposal allows us to program the periodic sending of messages on a daily, monthly or annual basis.
Mimax
We are also going to talk about this complete proposal for scheduling and tracking emails in Gmail from Chrome. Thus, in addition to being able to specify exactly the actual moment of sending the messages, we will be able to know who opened that email , or how often the content was viewed. We will also have the possibility to easily share the Google calendar in any message or delete the returned ones.
Customize the time of sending from Gmail itself
You have to know that the search giant’s own email platform also presents its own functionality for it. With this what we tell you is that we can delay a certain email before finishing the shipping process as such. This is something that has been with us in Gmail for a while, functionality that was not implemented from the beginning.
Therefore, to make use of it, the first thing we will do is access the platform as such in a conventional manner. Then we place ourselves and click on the button located in the upper left corner, Compose. This will give way to the message writing window, so we create the email. Once finished, at the bottom left, right next to the Send button, we click on the arrow that appears. Here we will see a list where we choose the call Schedule shipment.
Here we will have the opportunity to specify the day and time when we want the recipient of the mail to actually receive it, even if we send it at this time. Say that with this we can schedule up to 100 emails .
