Deferred e mail delivery
« on: December 30, 2010, 11:37:41 AM »
For reasons too tortuous to explain I want to compose and send an e mail to three people, but want it delivered about 48 hours after I press the Send button. Anyone (Tel?) know of a way to do this?

Okay...

Click New for a new mail, fill in the recipients as normal...

Then click Options in the e-mail itself 9not the Outlook main screen).

Then check the 'Do not deliver before' box and select the date and time you want it delivered...

Of course, your Alibi has now been blown....  whistle:
