Vista - Designate when an email will be sent

04-04-2008

Hello,
Can I designate the time an email will be sent. If so, does my computer
need to be on at the time of transmission? I read where people were having
their computer send emails to their boss at 3AM to make the boss think they
were up late working on a project. Not that I would ever do that.
All suggestions greatly appreciated.

Depends on the email client. Outlook will do this, Windows Mail will not.
For Outlook, it must remain open if used with a POP3 or IMAP account, but
can be closed if used with an Exchange Server account.
