The delay-send rule, back in the new Outlook.

Press Send and the email waits two minutes in Drafts, where you can still fix the wrong recipient, the missing attachment or the typo. Then it goes out on its own, even with Outlook closed.

New Outlook for Windows, Mac and the web. Personal and work accounts.

It leaves on its own

The timer lives in your mailbox, not on your PC. Close Outlook; it still goes out on time.

It never reads your email. Delay Send only tells Outlook when to send; the message sits in your own Drafts folder until the timer runs out.

Questions

What if I need to send right now?

Switch the delay off in the Delay Send pane, send, then switch it back on.

Which Outlook versions does it work in?

New Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac and Outlook on the web, on personal outlook.com and hotmail.com accounts and on work or school accounts. Classic Outlook for Windows is not supported.

Does it still send if I close Outlook?

Yes. The email is scheduled inside your mailbox, so it goes out on time whether Outlook is open, closed or your laptop is asleep.

Can I cancel?

Yearly: any time, at app.link.com. The add-in keeps working until the end of the year you paid for. Lifetime is a one-time payment, so there is nothing to cancel.
