I discovered the 'delay delivery' feature in Outlook 2007. I know that
Outlook must be open at the time the message is scheduled to be delivered but
the emails don't get sent. They sit in the Outbox until I go in and hit
'send', which defeats the whole purpose of delayed delivery. I've tried a
number of things to no avail. Please help.

Are you using an Exchange server?

You might have to enable Automatic Messages to the Internet in your Exchange
Server. Just a hunch.
