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?
It's a feature. On *nix, the system does what the user has been asking to do. On M$ software has a will of its own, it does what the OS thinks the user actually might want to do. Not per se what the user wants. If you could delay the deliveral (by postfix or so), than it would always delay all of your mail, Is this what you want? Might have undesirable effects, like sending a mail, and some minutes later power down before dashing off to work ( or at home) , and wondering why the message did not arrive.
