The re-edit feature opens a previously sent email as an editable draft, with all original recipients, subject, attachments, and body pre-filled — so you can revise and resend without starting over.
When to use this feature
Use the re-edit feature when you need to:
Correct an error — fix a wrong date, missing detail, or inaccurate information and resend to the same recipients.
Follow up — resend a message to recipients who did not respond, with an updated note.
Reuse for a new recipient — send a similar email to a different person without rewriting it from scratch.
Send a recurring update — resend a periodic announcement or report to the same group, with only the latest details changed.
What the draft contains
When you trigger re-edit on a sent email, the following elements are pre-filled in the new draft:
