Unsend Email App, Available for Blackberry
0February 12, 2010
PuguaSoft released a BlackBerry app called Unsend Email which basically delays all your outgoing email so that you can recall them if you made a mistake.
Unsend Email, lets you set your own configurable time delay anywhere from 30 seconds to 5 minutes where you can recall the email. This is great for people with fat fingers who tend to make mistakes and only realize it when it’s already sent.
I think, even though it sounds like an amazing feature it can get annoying especially if you are a heavy Blackberry user.
