Delay sending email

[Guest]

In outlook 2000 there was an option when creating an email to "do not send
before XXXX time". ie, If I was sending an email after hours to my husband
at work, I could send it to arrive "not before" 8:15am on a specific date.
It would sit in my Outbox until the first scheduled send/receive after 8:15
on that day.

This was beneficial because it meant that my email wouldn't be lost in the
dozens of emails that would hit his inbox during the night/weekend. Mine
would be right the top of the list.

I don't see that function in Outlook 2003. Is it gone or just moved? If
it's moved, please advise where. If it's gone, please advise where I can
post/send comments about excellent features in previous versions of Outlook
that are missing from later versions.

Thanks for your help!

Same place it always is - under options. Are you using Word as your editor now? If yes, then getting to options is different.
