I know of no way to do that automatically. The best alternative might be to save outgoing messages as drafts, then somehow remember to send them later.

Hi there, I'm in search of the same thing here.

I tried this but all it does is remind you when you wanted the email sent. You still have to go into your drafts select the email and send it yourself!

Is there any way to automatically send an email at a given time?

Thanks

The question is, in OUTLOOK for Mac can you simply delay sending an email to a chosen time in the future.
It was simple using Outlook 2010 in the Windows environment. Nobody answering this directly suggests it is not possible, which is very annoying since I have used this feature regularly for 5 years prior to using Outlook for MAC.

I use the option to schedule a send. You'll find it under "Preferences" > "Schedule". If you double-click the "Send All" entry, you can "Add an Occurrence" under "When" then set a repeating schedule for every 10 minutes. What will happen is that you'll send a message and it will sit in the Outbox until the scheduler triggers a send. The only time I have a problem is when I send a message then the scheduler triggers a send within the next couple of seconds -- then the message goes out pretty quickly. However, the vast majority of the time, it works well.

Hello. I have just bad news:


1. In Outook 2011 for MAC this is a feature that doesn't exist. If you’d like to see in future versions of Office for Mac, be sure to send your feedback by clicking “Help” > “Send Feedback…” in any Office application.

2. I can't found and "nice" script for delay send our emails using mail...

3. I don´t know how to use automator... may be someone can upload a youtube video how to do it.


Hope someone give us some good new.

David
