Scheduled send
Now for you, morning for them.
Pick a day and a time in the composer and the message waits. It sits on the calendar until then, and you can still change your mind.
In short
What is a scheduled email?
Scheduling splits the writing from the sending. The message is held until the moment you named, so it arrives in the recipient's morning rather than at two in yours.

How it works
Waiting mail is on the calendar
Each message sits at its send time beside your meetings, so you can see what is still to go out.
Open it, change it, move it
Recipients, subject, body and time stay editable until it goes. Cancel send calls it back.
A repeated delivery sends nothing
Each waiting message has a record that sending claims first, so a second delivery of the same send finds nothing to claim.

Good practice
Getting the most out of it
- 01
Aim at their morning
Pick the hour in the recipient's day, not yours.
- 02
Look before the day
Read it again the evening before, while you can still change it.
- 03
Keep the formatting
A body rewritten on the calendar sends as plain paragraphs. To keep formatting, cancel and rewrite in the composer.
Where it stands
Good to know
- Further than a year
- Refused as you schedule it, not accepted and then quietly lost.
- Changing attachments
- The calendar editor changes the words, the addresses and the time, never the files.
- Editing translated or encrypted mail
- The words are fixed once it is scheduled. Cancel it and send again.
