If your using outlook. Goto File > options > Mail > then scroll down to the " send messages " section . In there you should see a checkbox for " warn me when I send a message that may be missing an attachment. "
Once that’s enabled outlook looks for keywords in the body of the email such as attached, attachment, e.t.c. and will warn you if there’s nothing attached.
So if you at any point in the email say " please see attached, issue is attached, screenshot attached e.t.c. " then you’ll be in the clear.
Also, 2 minute delay before sending any work emails. That saved my ass multiple times already
Problem: Our ticket system is outside of M365.
So for me: Get fucked.Oh well…Customers will just get a 2nd email ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
Thunderbird does this too. I think it’s enabled by default
That’s dope. Thank you
e.t.c.
Only the cetera in et cetera is shortened.
Holy shit what. So it’s supposed to be et.c.? What have I done! All those emails!
That has saved me more times than I care to count.
I never turned this on and it always warns me about messages that have no relation to attachments at all. It’s really annoying
Gmail is so nice because after it’s done scouring through my potentially private emails it lets me know if I said “is attached” but didn’t attach any files
I also like the “undo send” button. Saves me all the time at work.
The only drawback is how long your onosecond is. If you have a very high onosecond, the undo send button can’t help ya.
many, probably most, email clients do this
And you’ve written some painfully edited highly professional email to your professor or boss and the response you get back from them is a single sentence, not even a signature.
So glad they made it such a point to teach us to write professional emails in my freshman year of college.

Put the address in last. You can’t accidentally send an unfinished email if there is no-one to send it to.
Same. I put the cc:s first, then the message, then the attachment, last the main recipient.
Doesn’t work with Reply, but it’s my standard practice for new and Forwarded emails. It’s saved me a few times!
Thunderbird now has a really useful reminder popup for that!
Im pretty sure this has existed for quite some time now.
Yeah this has been there for as long as I can remember.
Yes I think too, but it got better or different or opt-out or anything, not sure.
Every fucking time! I honestly think I have some type of aversion to attaching the file before hitting send.
On Kmail you have the option to send with delay.
On Outlook you can set rules for anything except X text in the recipient mail making you able to set wildcards to some extent.
