Default How to set schedule to send emails?

Outlook Express cannot do that. Can you Google?

Thank you very much for your suggestions

My purpose is to send Newsletter bi-weekly, and would like to prepare
Newsletter for at least 6 months.
Do you have any suggestions on Outlook Express?

You can, but it's not a simple operation.

Tools | Options | Send. Uncheck: Send Messages Immediately. In Tools |
Options | Read, Check: Send and receive messages at startup.

Create the message and save it to Drafts temporarily.

Start | Programs | Accessories | System Tools | Scheduled Tasks. Click on
Add New Task | Next | Outlook Express. Follow the prompts and choose One
Time Only. Note that you can right click on Scheduled Tasks and Send To |
Desktop (create shortcut) if you are going to do this often.

Now, at some time before you chose to send the message, you have to close
OE, but leave the computer on. Just before you do, open Drafts and press
Send to put the message in the Outbox. If you have OE configured to poll
for
new messages every XX minutes, you will either have to uncheck it, or
close
OE quickly as that will send the message also.

When the chosen time arrives, OE will open and send the message.

You will have to go back to Scheduled Tasks and delete the task you
created
at some time.
