One simple step now saves me much potential embarrassment with my email. Maybe it can do this for you, too, once you find out what it is. | ||

Embarrassment of: sending email? Not answering email? Receiving email? Viewing email? Sending email to someone unintended? | ||

Sending emails with something unintended? Typos? Words typed in the heat of the moment? Saving messages as drafts relevant? Typos in email addresses relevant? Mishearing a spoken address? | ||

What I meant was that some people type their e-mails in a word processor (Word etc.) and then copy the text into the e-mail - instead of typing it directly in their web browser or e-mail client. | ||

Is this a way to avoid mixing up recipients when replying to messages from different senders in the same browsing session? To avoid sending out drafts before you have finished editing them? | ||

Do you type the email and save it as a draft, and then later read through it before sending? | ||

Do you "save as draft" whenever you're interrupted while typing an email, so that you don't later inadvertently click "send" on the unfinished email? | ||

Is the email addressed to yourself in case you accidentally hit "send?" Or do you just leave the "Send" box empty. Click on "save for later?" Do you use a screen name only used for just that purpose? One no one knows about? | ||

YES! !!!!! Click on "save for later?"see above Do you use a screen name only used for just that purpose? no One no one knows about? no ******** SPOILER ************** Having suffered the embarrassment of sending messages prematurely when I inadvertently clicked on 'send' rather than 'save,' I now leave the 'send' box empty until I'm actually ready to send a message. Sorry this puzzle was so easy (as measured by how fast it got solved), but please check out my new one, which won't be . . .I hope. | ||

See now this is the thing. I am not too sure about how to handle this "spoiler" thingy. I solved this puzzle which according to your "spoiler" rule I should not have done without emailing the creator of the puzzle. But I didn't know I tagged the answer. Is that ok? Chek | ||

I can't speak for Nimue, but what I meant was you only email if you think you have the answer right away, Chek. Sorry I was unclear. =( I seem to be making a mess of things lately... | ||
