I would like to be able to write an email now and specify a date/time in the
future that it will be delivered at that date/time and time stamped (the
'sent: date/time' line) with that date and time. I tried using the 'do not
deliver before' function under Delivery Options but the email displayed the
actual time that I hit Send and not the time I selected in 'do not deliver
before'.
Example: I write an email at 1pm on 1/1/01 and request a do not deliver
before date/time of 4pm on 1/1/01, close the options and hit Send. The email
goes to the outbox like it should. I leave the computer (outlook still
connected to the internet and folders updated on schedule) and return at 6pm
to see if it sent. At first there is no record of it in sent items so i hit
send/receive automatically, outlook updates and in a minute or so it appears
in sent items as being sent at 1pm on 1/1/01. What went wrong?
Also, as an enhancement request I would like to be able to wite an email now
and specify a date/time that it will be delivered so that it will sit in the
outbox until that specific date/time arrives, at which point it will deliver
the email. If I am offline at that time or outlook is disconnected then it
will deliver the email the next time it becomes connected but still be time
stamped with the date/time I chose.
