Have you experienced difficulty in keeping up with your packed schedule and accidentally missing out on sending crucial emails? I can relate! Fortunately, Microsoft Outlook offers a solution by allowing you to schedule emails to be sent at a later time. This feature has been a lifesaver for me and in this article, I will demonstrate how to send scheduled emails using Outlook.
Step 1: Compose your email
The first step is to compose your email. Write it just like you would any other email, adding the subject, recipients, and the content of the email. Make sure to double-check everything before moving on to the next step.
Step 2: Choose the delivery options
Once you have composed your email, go to the “Options” tab in the ribbon at the top of the Outlook window. In the “More Options” group, you will find the “Delay Delivery” option. Click on it to open the delivery options menu.
Step 3: Set the delivery date and time
In the delivery options menu, you will see a checkbox that says “Do not deliver before.” Check this box and select the date and time you want your email to be sent. You can choose any date and time in the future, even if it is days or weeks from now.
Step 4: Review and send
Before sending your scheduled email, make sure to review everything one last time. Check the recipients, subject line, and email content to ensure everything is accurate. Once you are satisfied, click the “Send” button.
Now, sit back and relax! Your email will be automatically sent at the specified date and time. No more worrying about forgetting important emails or sending them at odd hours of the night.
One thing to note is that your computer needs to be turned on and connected to the internet at the scheduled time for the email to be sent. If your computer is off or not connected, the email will be sent as soon as it is turned on and connected.
I hope this article has been helpful in showing you how to send schedule email in Outlook. It’s a great feature that can help you stay organized and efficient in your email communication. Give it a try and see how it can make a difference in your daily workflow!
Happy scheduling!
