Improve GP Notification in Emails
I regularly get sent GPs that I have to send a separate email for because I didn't notice them until I was deleting the email. *Blush* I've noticed sometimes others will apparently do the same thing because I'll get an email response, then a second email apologizing and thanking me for the GPs. *Laugh*

I was looking at an email with GPs and trying to figure out how to improve it. I'm thinking maybe if the words are all in green and larger, that might help? Maybe even a space between the To and the GPs? I'll use Legendary❤️Mask as an example since she's the GP email I currently have up. lol And I'm using *NoteG* as the GP. *Bigsmile* It shows as...

But maybe it would be easier to spot if it looked different such as below...

Or if you are concerned that some people might have trouble reading the green, you could go with hunter? Though it looks a lot like black to me, but maybe subconsciously you can train our eyes and brains to recognize the subtle difference so we can spot our GP emails better? *Bigsmile*

In both cases, I changed the size and color of the words and added a space between the To line and the GP line. Personally, I think it helps the GPs stand out more, but we do all have a bias toward our own ideas, so... *Bigsmile* *Rolling*
