Kari’s Tips and Tricks #119: Write Now, Send 📩 Later: Outlook’s Hidden Time-Saver⏰

📑 Schedule Send in Outlook: Write Now, Deliver Later

Ever wish you could schedule an email to go out later—without waking up early or staying late?

Now you can!
Outlook makes it easy with the new and improved Schedule Send feature. 🙌

⏱ Time to Read/Watch: ~2 min

📬 How to Use It:

New Message → Click the arrow next to Send → Schedule Send

Choose the exact date and time you want your message to be delivered. Whether you're working late, planning ahead, or simply spacing out communication—this gives you full control over when emails go out.

Once you hit send, the message will sit in your Drafts folder. You do not need to have your computer on or be connected in order for the message to send.

💡 Why This Saves Time:

✅ Stay productive without sending emails at odd hours
✅ Prevent inbox pileup for your coworkers
✅ Plan ahead without having to remember to hit send
✅ Reduce stress by getting communication done in advance

🎯 Pro Tip:

Use Schedule Send to queue up weekly updates, reminders, or next steps after a meeting—while everything’s still fresh in your mind.
