Default Doesn't save outbox data

Hi,

Thanks so much for your help.

I had tried that originally, but two things go wrong:



  1. It doesn't save the message as an outgoing message (meaning you cannot press send now, you would instead need to forward the message to make it in a "send-able" format.
  2. It does not save the time delay details when exporting it this way.
I am going to do that if there is no simpler solution, but then I will need to forward all the mails back to the recipient at the delayed time it was scheduled for -- one by one. This is a bit tedious and timely, but seems it is going to take shorter to do it one by one than it is to find a simpler solution!

Default Possible Solution

I had an Executive Director at a company schedule his emails by months in advance using the delay send option. He was very concerned that his outbox emails wouldn't come over to his new system. He only had 21 of them, so this method may be cumbersome for people that have 100+ emails sitting in there.

Steps I took to get the emails moved to his new system and keep the delayed send settings:

- Documented the delayed send settings for each message with screenshots. (precaution just in case)
- Exported the emails from his "Outbox" on his old PC to a .PST file
- Created a new folder in Outlook and imported the Outbox emails from his old PC.
- Opened each email, verified the delayed send options were correct and clicked send.
- Checked the Outbox on his new PC and verified all the messages were there and ready to be sent.
