Have you heard or tried to use already this new Gmail Custom Time? If not, then it's your time to try. Just like me, it's also my first time to use this application from Gmail.You can now send mails by selecting “Set custom time” from the Compose view. Any email you send to the past appears in the proper chronological order in your recipient’s inbox. You can opt for it to show up read or unread by selecting the appropriate option.
So what does this mean and is it for real? well it means that your email can travel through time and yes its real for those people who don’t know the day today and are not much familiar with Google’s sense of humor.
How do I use it?
Yes. You'll only be able to send email back until April 1, 2004, the day we launched Gmail. If we were to let you send an email from Gmail before Gmail existed, well, that would be like hanging out with your parents before you were born -- crazy talk.

Is there a limit to how far back I can send email?
