Re: Timing emails

No, Windows Mail doesn't have that capability.

Re: Timing emails

The only way to do that would be to go to File | Workoffline and send the
message to the outbox. Then you close WinMail and go back online. Then you
can set up a scheduled task to start winmail at a certain time, and then if
you have it set to send and receive at startup, then it will send when the
task starts it.

Its a bit of a pain.

Tools | Options | General ... uncheck 'Send/Receive at Startup' ... check
'Check for new messages every ...' and see if it will take 120 minutes (or
whatever.) I have mine set to 7 minutes. If I put something in the Outbox,
it will sit there until my next regular check time.

P.S. ... This won't work for establishing an alibi (g).
