How to save email as draft?

Jeffrey Ellis

Hi--

Seems like in 2008 we lost the ability to save an email as a draft? Also,
what if I need to send an email later -- meaning at a scheduled time. Is
there a way to do that?

Thanks.

Lost? Certainly not. The feature is available via the menu (File>Save), a
keyboard shortcut (Cmd+S), and, if the icon is no longer visible in the
toolbar, you can ctrl-/right-click the toolbar, choose Customize Toolbar and
drag the Save icon back into the toolbar.

You can also hit Send Later to store the message in the Outbox, where it
will remain until you choose to send it, either manually or via schedule. If
you want to specify a certain time and date for your message to be sent, you
can do so via AppleScript:

Hi, Michel--

Thank you for the information. Looks like it's just been phrased quite
differently than before.

I'll certainly make use of the AppleScript as well :)

All My Best,
Jeffrey
