You sure don’t want to miss this 2 useful ‘Bob’ Gmail lab plugin. It’s there to assist you selecting the accurate email recipients list whenever you’re composing an email.

Don’t forget Bob – Once you pick some email recipients, Gmail suggests more people you might want to include based on the groups of people you email most often. – Unlike Outlook where we can create distribution list to include the list of email address, Gmail does not have that feature. You tend to memorize the email address, or list down it somewhere else. This is where this lab came in handy, it will remind you to include the list of people that met condition described above, in case you missed them.

Got the wrong Bob? – Doh, have you ever addressed an email too quickly, and included Bob (your boss) instead of Bob (your friend) by accident? If you’re emailing more than two people at once, Gmail will check if you meant to include Bob Smith rather than Bob Jones based on the groups of people you email most often. – I bet you have experienced this before,  I just wish Outlook to have this feature as well!

Both Gmail lab plugin has to be enabled before it can be used. From within GMail, go to Setting >> Lab and looks for the plugin name above.
