# Draft Mode

Draft Mode controls whether the AI agent sends emails directly or creates drafts for you to review first.

## How to Enable

1. Open the MailAgent sidebar in Gmail.
2. Click **Draft Mode**.
3. Toggle the switch ON or OFF.

## Behavior

| Setting | Behavior                                                                             |
| ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **ON**  | The AI creates a draft in your Gmail Drafts folder. You review and send it manually. |
| **OFF** | The AI sends the email immediately on your behalf.                                   |

## When to Use Draft Mode

**Enable Draft Mode when:**

* You're first setting up MailAgent and want to verify the AI's responses.
* You're handling sensitive communications that require human review.
* You want to edit or personalize AI-generated responses before sending.
* You're fine-tuning your system prompt and want to see the results.

**Disable Draft Mode when:**

* You're confident in the AI's response quality.
* You're handling high-volume, low-risk emails (e.g., support acknowledgments).
* Speed of response is critical.

## Finding Your Drafts

When Draft Mode is on, AI-generated drafts appear in your standard Gmail **Drafts** folder. Each draft:

* Is pre-addressed to the correct recipient.
* Contains the AI-generated response body.
* Includes your configured [Email Signature](https://support.mailagent.email/gmail-addon/email-signature) (if set).
* Is part of the correct email thread.

You can edit the draft as needed before sending.
