Sending Delayed or Scheduled Outlook Email Messages

You can delay the delivery of an individual email message, or you can use rules to delay the delivery of all messages by having them held in the Outbox for a specified time after you click Send.

 

1.  While composing a message, select the More options arrow from the Tags group in the Ribbon.

2.  Under Delivery options, select the Do not deliver before check box, and then click the delivery date and time that you want.

3.  When you're done composing your email, click Close.

 

After you click Send, the message remains in the Outbox folder until the delivery time.

 

If you decide later that you want to send the message immediately, do the following:

1.  Switch to the Outbox

2.  Open the delayed message.

3.  Select the More options arrow from the Tags group in the Ribbon.

4.  Under Delivery options, clear the Do not deliver before check box.

5.  Click Close.

6.  Click Send.
