macOS: How to Use Scheduled Send in Apple Mail
In macOS Ventura, Apple has added some important new features to its built-in Mail app. This article shows you how to use the new Scheduled Send feature.
In earlier versions of macOS, Apple Mail didn't have some features that have become almost standard in other mail client apps. With the release of Ventura, Apple has finally added long-awaited features like Remind Me and Scheduled Send.
Scheduled Send does exactly what you'd expect it to do: it lets you write messages in Mail and tell it to send them at a certain time and date in the future. Because of this feature, you can write emails ahead of time when you have time, even if you don't plan to send them right away.
It's easy to set up an email to be sent at a later time. The steps below show you how to do it.
- In the Mail app interface, click the Compose new message button and enter your intended recipients, add a subject title, then compose your email.
- When you're done, click the downward chevron next to the Send icon.
- From the dropdown, select from Send Now, Send Tonight/Tomorrow, and Send Later....
- Clicking the last option will bring up a clock and calendar for you to set a specific time and date. Once you've done that, click Schedule.
So, that's it. Your email will leave your sent box at the time you set. Did you know that Apple Mail lets you take back an email that you sent? Find out how it works by reading our article on how to do it.
