How to use @ to mention one in Gmail | Email

The new Gmail is a message management platform that introduces new features for users. Among the possibilities, we highlight the feature that allows you to mark contacts in messages in the body of an email. The function, similar to that found in social media markings, adds the names prominently in the text and includes the contact as the recipient of the message.
