Gmail: How to send a confidential email that self-destructs

Without a doubt, one of the most used services on Google is Gmail. The platform, in addition to being very practical, offers users a series of features, such as the possibility of sending confidential messages with a date to self-destruct.

The feature aims to ensure greater security in the exchange of emails between users. In addition to setting an expiration date for messages, you can also create a password so that the recipient can open the message, which can help protect attachments and personal information.

Recipients who receive messages in confidential mode are also notified of the limits imposed by the sender. Restrictions make it impossible, for example, to share an email with sensitive data.

Important!

Messages sent via Gmail’s confidential mode do not prevent malicious people from copying or downloading the information sent in the body of the email.
