Tip #77 - Outlook Scheduling Email Delivery
It should not surprise anyone that when you create an email and click the Send button (or Ctrl + Enter) the message is sent. But did you know that you can schedule an email message to be sent at a specific date and time in the future. I always thought this would make a good alibi if you were writing a mystery novel. “No detectives, I couldn't have done what you’re accusing me of; I was here sending emails all evening!”
When you create a new email one of the options available from the Options tab is to delay delivery. When you click the option you will see the options dialog box where you can choose the date and time to deliver the message. It’s important to note that your Outlook program must be open in order for the message to be released from your Outbox.
While you’re in this dialog box notice some of the other delivery options. They include having replies sent to another individual. This is helpful if you plan on being out of the office and want someone else to receive replies to a specific email.
