Official Gmail Blog: New in Labs: Stop sending mail you later regret
Ha, this isn't an “error proofing” service I would need anymore, but it might be helpful for our younger (say early 20's) readers. It's a google Gmail setting that prevents you from sending regrettable drunken messages (say, to ex's) by asking you a few math problems that you might not able to complete if drunk. Seems like a real google service — not a prank or joke.
