One of Boomerang’s most powerful features is tracking responses. When writing an email, you can set Boomerang to give you a reminder if you don’t get a reply after a certain amount of days. If the message comes back to your inbox without a response, you can then react by sending another email to follow up.
You can now schedule your follow-up message as you're writing the original email. If the person replies to your original email, Boomerang will detect the response, and will not send the second email. If they don’t reply, Boomerang will send the follow-up message automatically. You’ll never have to let another important email fall through the cracks.
Use Boomerang to take messages out of your inbox until you actually need them. At the time you chose, we'll bring it back to your inbox, marked unread, starred, or even at the top of your message list.
While this function is certainly useful to remind ourselves about stuff that is weeks or months away, sometimes when those messages bounce back, we realize that we had no idea why we wanted them in the first place. You can now attach a note to the message as you schedule it with Boomerang. When the message returns to your inbox at the time you specify, your note will be appended to the email thread.
