Scheduling Sent Mail

Z

Zeb

is there a way to set up Entourage to have certain messages go out at
specified times from a specified account?

that is ... i want account #1 to send/receive when i press the
send/receive button.

on account #2 i want to be able to write a message and *onyl* have it
sent at a specified time. like 6am. *but* i also want to write another
message at the same time and have it go out at 6pm. that is... i don't
want both messages to go out at once.

any ideas? applescript?

In Schedule, set your Send & Receive All just for Account #1.
on account #2 i want to be able to write a message and *onyl* have it
sent at a specified time. like 6am. *but* i also want to write another
message at the same time and have it go out at 6pm. that is... i don't

You can create a Timed Schedule for an account, but this would work on all
messages from that account. So if you set Account #2 for 6AM then all mail
from account #2 would go out. There is no feature in Entourage to set
individual emails for specific times to send.

I'm not sure if can be done with applescript. Something like iKey or
QuickKeys might have this feature. I don't use them so can't say for sure.

You can do it using a script. Two exist: Postpone, Delayed Send 1.95 by
Bryan Harris, and Delayed Send from Paul Berkowitz. Both can be downloaded
from ScriptBuilders @ MacScripter.
