Windows mail schedule email

Windows Mail, a built-in email client in Windows Vista and Windows 7, allows you to schedule emails to be sent at a later time. Here's how:

Method 1: Using the "Delay Send" feature

  1. Compose a new email as you normally would.
  2. Click on the "Options" button in the top-right corner of the window.
  3. In the "Options" window, click on the "Delay Send" button.
  4. Select the time and date you want the email to be sent from the drop-down menus.
  5. Click "OK" to save the changes.

Method 2: Using the "Send Later" feature

  1. Compose a new email as you normally would.
  2. Click on the "Send" button, but don't click "Send" yet.
  3. Right-click on the "Send" button and select "Send Later" from the context menu.
  4. In the "Send Later" window, select the time and date you want the email to be sent from the drop-down menus.
  5. Click "OK" to save the changes.

Method 3: Using the Windows Task Scheduler

  1. Open the Windows Task Scheduler by searching for it in the Start menu or by typing "taskschd.msc" in the Run dialog box (Windows key + R).
  2. Create a new task by clicking on "Create Basic Task" in the right-hand Actions panel.
  3. Give the task a name and description, and set the trigger to "Daily" or "Weekly" depending on your needs.
  4. Set the start time to the time you want the email to be sent.
  5. In the "Actions" tab, click on "New" and select "Start a program".
  6. In the "Program/script" field, enter the path to the Windows Mail executable (usually "C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\Windows Mail.exe").
  7. In the "Add arguments" field, enter the following command: /send <email address> <subject> <body>
  8. Replace <email address>, <subject>, and <body> with the actual email address, subject, and body of the email you want to send.
  9. Click "OK" to save the task.

Note: The above methods may not work in newer versions of Windows, such as Windows 10, as Windows Mail is no longer included in these versions.
