‼️FIX for Missing SEND LATER folder in Mail

After literally 2 hours in both Chat and on the phone with Apple Support, I finally was able to get my elusive Send Later mailbox to appear. Even though it should've appeared automatically, it sometimes doesn't, and you have to add it to Favorites.

  1. While in Apple Mail on your Mac, hover the cursor above the grayed out Favorites at the very top of the sidebar, and you'll see a + option.
  2. Click on the +, and a window will pop up giving you the option to Add a Mailbox.
  3. Use the up/down menu to the right, and choose Send Later.
  4. Click OK. The Send Later mailbox should then "magically" appear right below your Flagged folder.


I hope this helps some people from the frustration I experienced!

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.2
