Google Apps is a powerful platform, but to make it even more powerful these simple Mail settings will turn your email into a dashboard of information. We recommend giving these settings a try, we’ve found them to make a difference for our users:
Via the Settings Menu, click on Web Clips and click disable.
Via the Settings Menus, click on General and Enable Keyboard shortcuts.
Via Settings, the Labs tab enable Labs (if necessary).
From the Labs settings area click enable on the following:
Signature Tweaks
Right Side Chat
Right Side Labels
Default Reply to All
Forgotten Attachment Detector
Mark as Read Button
Send & Archive
Undo Send
Title Tweaks
Google Calendar Gadget
Google Docs Gadget
A few notes on our favorite settings:
-Keyboard shortcuts is incredibly handy, once enabled type a ? to bring up a quick link dialog of available shortcuts.
-Send & Archive. Simply the most powerful way to keep your Inbox clean. A must have.
-Undo Send. Give yourself 10 seconds to retrieve an email. Very handy for last second edits.
-Right side labels and chat. Get everything on one page with a dashboard look and feel.
