Entourage - Delay Outgoing Email

July 11, 2008 12:38 PM

On my prevous version of Outlook on the PC, I was able to delay my outgoing mail for 3 minutes. This helped greaty as I'd often remember that I forgot to attach a file or I needed to add a comment. I recently switched to outlook for the mac (the latest version of Entourage). Can someone tell me how I can delay outgoing emails in Entourage 2008 for say 3 to 5 minutes?

What you're going to want to do is customize your message toolbar with the "send later" button and remove the "send" button which immediately sends out the message via SMTP. With send later, you can then customize your send/receive schedule to only send mail say ever ten minutes so that you have a bit of time where that message will sit in your outbox and you can update it if need be.
