schedule sending email
Hi,
I'm surprise that this feature is not yet in Outlook. I would like the possibility to delay sending email to a specific time.
Thank you
Thanks for the feedback! Send later is now available for all users

Please allow an option to unsend an email if necessary. Gmail has had this option for years...it is a a great feature!

Add an option to schedule an email to be sent at a specified time and date.

It'd be very helpful if email can be scheduled on Outlook.com. I use Outlook on my browser. Since there is no such option for scheduling, I'm unable to make it my primary email. I'm required to schedule emails for my convenience. Implementation would be highly appreciated.

Can you please add scheduled emails, the ability to have emails sent at a later time?

Recall Email Function is a MUST. Especially in the business/office arena. With the pace of business these days, with many interruptions, often errors are made or minds change. MUST BE ABLE TO EASILY RECALL AS IN MICROSOFT OFFICE. I ended up forwarding back to the recipient; putting a heading to disregard earlier email & deleting that earlier email before replacing.

That opening in-my-face ad nearly caused me to leave immediately. I'm only making the effort because I now dislike the google even more than Microsoft, and on that basis, I rather wish you offered a superior email service so I could dump Gmail. Of course I wish it were an email option from a nice company, but that is not an option these years.
Here it is as a URL, with a text version to follow.

Sorry I don't care about you enough to spend the time to clean up the following version if you don't like the URL version... I also hate your little tiny input window.

However, future delivery is something I've been advocating for several years. I'm betting the google mucked it up. Right now that's basically a wager until I see how it works. I know how I want it to work, but the REAL problem is that I'm time-centric and today's google is all about the money.
For example, I want to combine future delivery with the unsend feature by having an option for a default future delivery time. ALL of my email would be delayed a bit, NOT just the 30-second delay of the unsend feature. The best value depends very much on how you think, but I think I would set it for an hour. That's enough time for the ideas to percolate a bit, and if I feel uncomfortable, I would be able to get the email and look at it again before it gets sent. If I want immediate send because it really is urgent, then it would be the same as invoking the future delivery option, but instead of setting it for some date in the future, I would just pick 1 minute from now. Or that could be masked as an "urgent" email option, with one click (or a menu and click) to mark it urgent and to send it immediately.
So when should I go see how the google has bollixed it? Now I've gotten my hopes up again, and today's google is always dashing them.
(Sort of like my recent disappointments with Slashdot, though the solutions are more obvious here because the scopes of the problems are smaller. The difference is that the google has lots of money to play with because some parts of their business model are viable, while Slashdot has become a sort of weird basket case surviving on someone's charity.)

(0) An effective spammer-fighting system to help put the scammers out of business. "Live and let spam" is NOT a solution. The basic principle is that only the potential victims know for sure.
(1) Reject and bounce confidential-mode email. If you don't trust me that much, I do NOT want your email.
(2) Reject no-reply email. If you don't care enough to receive my reply, then I do NOT want your email. And you don't even deserve to know it was never delivered.
As usual, I have to close on grounds of time, but I'll bid you ADSAuPR, atAJG.

...at least 30 seconds, please... dear outlook, you used to allow 30 seconds to undo send, but now only 10 ...10 seconds is not enough time, many of us are not that fast ... please allow at least 30 seconds? ...thanks :)

please add the ability to stop sending messages with the "Wird gesendet..." status like in other mail programms (there is a outboox where you can delete mails before they are send)

Would like the "delay delivery" function of an email so that you can send it later.

The choice to recall a sent message or be able to replace it is fundamental. Please consider activating for outlook.com and 365

I would like vacation replies to be sent more than once to people who continue to send messages - perhaps once per day per sender?

Its missing lots of configuration. A few parameters include setting a delay for composed messages. Another one is to change view type for mails (newest-first, oldest-first..etc).

Make it possible to "unsend" an email.

Please Please add in the RECALL option on the internet based hotmail/ outlook. Like the one on the exchange outlook!!!! Really need that.

How hard is it to incorporate a delay send feature? It was in every version ever and now it's nowhere to be found. FOR MONTHS. Come on.
