The best tip is to type important or sensitive emails in your word processor first. Copy it to your email program after you've done all your edits. And use an email program that automatically delays sending emails for X minutes.

I do the same and it saved me in multiple situations

This might sound crazy to young'uns today, but I used to apply for jobs without ever having email, and I would get them too!

Reply to LPT: put dishwasher detergent in your dishwasher as soon as you empty the clean dishes and you’ll never have to guess whether not the dishes are clean. If the detergent tray is empty, they’re clean; if it’s full, they’re dirty. by vendetta2115

after you microwave water, all the steam will loosen up the shit on the microwave's ceiling, then you can wipe it down easily (instead of worrying about bits of 2 week old clam chowder falling into your coffee)

A better tip is to just add some gibberish in the To: section (ie "blahblahblah"), which will stop Gmail/Outlook from sending as it can't recognize the email address. Then when you're ready to send, just delete the gibberish. This works well when you're doing big reply all emails.

If you can at all, get an induction hob. It's actual witchcraft. All the power and accuracy of gas burners, with the cleanliness of an electric one. Nothing ever gets burnt onto an induction hob.

Another LPT: set up delayed send on your inboxes. All my emails get sent after 2 minutes so I have time to go in and revise / change anything if there’s a mistake

Rewording means saying the same thing in a different way.
I'm saying a different thing.

Tried this, didn't work. Not sure how the heat transfers across the kitchen from my oven to the stove on the other counter.

Well he didn't reword it, that's suggesting he's making the same point. But he isn't. He's making a completely different point about preventative measures.

Reply to comment by ldskyfly in LPT: Thinking about vinegar, lemons and other acidic foods makes your mouth water. I regularly use this to take painkillers and such without needing a drink. by Xtrendence
You don't actually need those liquids/foods. Just think for a few seconds about how they'd taste, how it'd feel in your mouth etc. And it should work.
Think about the smell of vinegar, the taste, that almost stinging piercing taste. Works for me!

Can you do that in Gmail?
I had it set to ten minutes in another email program. That was great, except when I turned the computer off before the ten minutes was up. Got me into big trouble once.
