You may have overlooked the Snooze button.

It only appears if you hover over an email with your mouse cursor (on the far right).

If you’re using the Google Gmail mobile app, you’ll need to select an email then tap the submenu to get to it.

You’d be forgiven for never noticing or using it, given it’s so tucked away.

But hitting Snooze on an email has some serious advantages.

It removes the chosen email from your inbox and then re-delivers it to you later.

This is extremely handy as it can prevent you from forgetting about an important email.

It happens all the time: You read an email, forget about it, and then it’s buried forever.

But the Snooze brings important emails back from the dead when you’re ready to deal with it.

“Postpone emails and temporarily remove them from your inbox until you need them,” Google explains.

“Your email will come back to the top of your inbox when you want it to, whether that’s tomorrow, next week, or this evening.”

If you click on the Snooze button, you’ll be given the opportunity to select a better time for email redelivery.

You could choose to get it in the evening, or even another day entirely.

Of course it’s still possible to find Snoozed emails before their redelivery time.

Although they’re hidden from your main inbox, they’ll still appear inside the Snoozed folder.

You can find that folder on the left of your Gmail in a web browser, or in the left-hand menu of the mobile app (like on your iPhone or Android).
