Default Schedule future emails

Using Outoook 2002, I want to be able to schedule emails to be sent at a
future time/date. I tried downloading an add-in from Mapi but it created
annoying security messages so I uninstalled it. Can anyone suggest how else
I can schedule emails to be sent at a future date/time?

You can open the Options dialog for any email and set the "Do not deliver
before" setting to whatever you want.

Using code you can set the DeferredDeliveryTime Date/Time property to
whatever date/time you want to schedule the sending of the item.

Thanks. However, I do not see that in the Options dialog box. Please
advise. Also, how do I use code?

Hi,

If you wish to simplify the process you can download Easy Mail Merge
from DS Development.
If you wish to send a mail to a list or to a single person this will
simplify the process and you can also select to send them every 10
minutes for example or the next day.
You can download the add-in from www.emailaddressmanager.com

regards,
Andrei

Open a new email. Make sure the Standard toolbar is being displayed. Click
the Options button. That option is there both with the Outlook editor and
with WordMail.

To use code you would handle the NewInspector() event of the Inspectors
collection to trap all items opening, or you can use a macro that you call
that uses the ActiveInspector object, something like this:

Public Sub DelayThisEmail()
Dim oInsp As Outlook.Inspector
Dim oMail As Outlook.MailItem

Set oInsp = Application.ActiveInspector
Set oMail = oInsp.CurrentItem
oMail.DeferredDeliveryTime = DateAdd("h", 4, Now)
oMail.Save
End Sub

That would actually submit the email to the transport 4 hours from now,
after you click the Send button or use the Send() method in code on that
mail item.
