Tips

• For long email bodies, use clipboard write then paste to avoid typing issues
• Gmail search operators: from:alice, subject:invoice, is:unread, newer_than:2d
• Always read back the recipient and subject before sending to confirm with the user
• If multiple Gmail accounts are signed in, check which account is active on the inbox screen
