Sometimes we need to type the same message over and over or there may be need for standard similar email reponses or reminder letter to clients or anwering some FAQ or a standard meeting agenda to be mailed, then consider using a Google Lab feature called "Canned Responses."

To enable Canned Responses,

1. Click the gear icon in the upper right-hand corner of Gmail, then choose Settings.

2. Click the Labs tab,  Canned Responses, click the Enable radio button to enable Canned Responses, scroll down and click Save Changes.

3. Compose an email message which you want to use over and over again, then click the arrow in the lower right-hand corner of the message window. Choose Canned Responses, and under the Save heading, select New Canned Response. Give your response a name and click OK.

4. The next time when you wish to use canned response, compose new mail, click the arrow button in the lower right-hand corner, select Canned Responses, and then under Insert, choose the canned response you created in the previous step. You’ll then see your response appear in the body of your reply.

Canned responses can also be automated to be sent out based on certain criteria (sender, keyword, label, subject and things like that)
