• Select "Settings".
• Select "general" tab if not already.
• About half-way down, look for the "Undo Send" option.  
• Click the check box to "Enable Undo Send".
• Click the dropdown box to choose 5, 10, 20 or 30 seconds.
• Scroll tot he bottom of the page and click the "Save Changes" button.

When you next send an email, a message will appear that says "Your message has been sent.  Undo.".  Click the Undo option to unsend the message.  Your message will not be sent.  You can edit or close the message and return it to your draft folder.

That's it!  Save yourself some grief by turn this new feature on.

Enjoy!
