Introduction to Delaying Email Delivery in Outlook
Delaying the delivery of emails in Outlook can be a useful feature for managing your communication effectively. This guide will walk you through the steps to delay individual messages as well as set up rules for all outgoing messages. -
Delaying Delivery of Individual Messages
To postpone the delivery of a single email message, follow these steps: 1. **Open the Options Tab**: After composing your email, navigate to the 'Options' tab in the ribbon. 2. **Select Delay Delivery**: Click on 'Delay Delivery'. A new window will appear. 3. **Set Delivery Options**: In the 'Delivery Options' box, check the 'Do not deliver before' option. Choose your desired date and time. 4. **Send the Message**: Once you click 'Send', the message will be stored in the Outbox until the specified delivery time. Note that Outlook must remain open for the message to be sent at the scheduled time. 5. **Immediate Sending**: If you decide to send the message immediately, open the delayed message, return to the 'Options' tab, uncheck 'Do not deliver before', and then send it. -
Delaying Delivery of All Outgoing Messages
To delay the delivery of all messages you send, you will need to create a rule. Here’s how: 1. **Access Rules and Alerts**: Click on the 'File' tab, then select 'Manage Rules and Alerts'. 2. **Create a New Rule**: Click on 'New Rule'. In the window that opens, select 'Apply rule on messages I send' and click 'Next'. 3. **Choose Conditions**: You can select one or more conditions for the rule. If you do not select any, a confirmation dialog will appear. If you click 'Yes', the rule will apply to all messages. 4. **Set Action for the Rule**: In the action list, select 'Defer delivery by a number of minutes'. Click on the underlined value to specify the number of minutes (up to 120 minutes) for which messages will be held before sending. 5. **Select Exceptions**: Click 'Next' to choose any exceptions if desired, then click 'Next' again. 6. **Name and Activate the Rule**: Name your rule and check the 'Turn on this rule' box. Click 'Finish'. From now on, each message you send will be held in the Outbox for the specified duration. -
Conclusion
Delaying email delivery in Outlook can enhance your email management by allowing you to control when your messages are sent. Whether you need to postpone a single message or set a rule for all outgoing emails, following the steps outlined in this guide will help you utilize this feature effectively.
