Hello. I am pretty used to Outlook Express with a good feature (or, I call it a good feature) that when I send an email, the email is not directly going out, it stay in the local out-going-email folder for a while, giving me time to think about it or cancel it.
I am spoiled. Now I often press 'send' button, and go on working, two minutes later I suddenly start to think the email has a wrong digit or sent to the wrong person, or one more person should be 'cc'ed. But it's too late, the email is already gone. I am spoiled by Outlook Express that I have the chance to further work on the email even after I sent it.
I know it's so much better to be able to think carefully before I send it, for me what I need is the same feature (delay email for 10 minutes, or only send email at round clock) for evolution. I checked all the preferences settings, I didn't find such setting. Is this feature missing or is it hidden?
The closest thing that I can find to do in evolution is as follows: 1. Click on your Outbox folder 2. From the evolution menu choose: Message -> Post New Message To Folder 3. Create the message you will eventually wish to send. 4. Send the message. The message will be kept in the Outbox folder. When you are ready to send it to the actual recipient, click on the message. Enter the recipient's address and send it as normal. Rick -- Rick's Law: What cannot be imagined will be accomplished by a fool. PGP Key Id: 9E1125E0
