Tip: Sending empty messages
October 15, 2008
Posted by Jon Kotker, Gmail engineering intern, Summer 2008
I often send messages where the subject is the entire message (e.g. "Want to grab lunch at 12:30?"), and Gmail would always prompt me to add in body text.
Now, however, you can add "EOM" or "(EOM)" at the end of the subject line (short for
E
nd
O
f
M
essage), and Gmail will silently send the message without the unnecessary prompt.
