1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,293
You choose Schedule send, then the message disappears from the compose window.

2
00:00:04,293 --> 00:00:08,506
In Outlook on the web, it waits in Drafts until delivery time.

3
00:00:08,506 --> 00:00:12,719
We will use a fictional self-addressed practice message to map that

4
00:00:12,719 --> 00:00:17,635
path, check the planned send time, and identify the control shown in your interface.

5
00:00:17,635 --> 00:00:20,443
Nothing will be sent from this lesson package.

6
00:00:21,043 --> 00:00:25,780
The practice file contains a neutral Harbor Workshop reminder with no customer details.

7
00:00:25,780 --> 00:00:29,787
If you later test in a real account, use only your

8
00:00:29,787 --> 00:00:34,888
own authorized test address and choose a future time at least an hour away.

9
00:00:34,888 --> 00:00:38,896
Before scheduling, note the recipient, exact subject, and displayed time zone.

10
00:00:38,896 --> 00:00:42,903
These details will help you find the correct draft if the

11
00:00:42,903 --> 00:00:44,361
folder contains many messages.

12
00:00:44,961 --> 00:00:48,972
In Outlook on the web, compose the message and use the

13
00:00:48,972 --> 00:00:50,431
dropdown next to Send.

14
00:00:50,431 --> 00:00:54,808
Select Schedule send, then a preset or custom future time, and confirm.

15
00:00:54,808 --> 00:00:59,549
Microsoft's current help says the message remains in Drafts until that time.

16
00:00:59,549 --> 00:01:03,560
This is not the same interface as classic desktop Outlook, where

17
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,113
a delayed message may be found elsewhere.

18
00:01:06,713 --> 00:01:10,752
Open Drafts and locate the message by its unique subject and recipient.

19
00:01:10,752 --> 00:01:14,790
Read the scheduled-send time displayed on that message; do not rely

20
00:01:14,790 --> 00:01:17,818
on the time shown for a different selected draft.

21
00:01:17,818 --> 00:01:21,520
If you do not see it, check the correct account and

22
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,539
folder before assuming it was sent.

23
00:01:23,539 --> 00:01:26,905
If the planned time has passed, also inspect Sent Items.

24
00:01:27,505 --> 00:01:31,226
Open the scheduled message and read its planned send time.

25
00:01:31,226 --> 00:01:35,319
Microsoft's current Outlook overview shows Cancel send; another web help

26
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,179
page shows an Edit pencil.

27
00:01:37,179 --> 00:01:38,668
Your interface may differ.

28
00:01:38,668 --> 00:01:41,272
Inspect the message without selecting a control.

29
00:01:41,272 --> 00:01:45,365
To change it, cancel the schedule if available, edit the unsent

30
00:01:45,365 --> 00:01:47,970
draft, schedule again, then recheck the time.

31
00:01:47,970 --> 00:01:52,063
Do not choose Send or Send Now just to inspect it.

32
00:01:52,663 --> 00:01:56,460
A common mistake is searching only the Outbox because a desktop

33
00:01:56,460 --> 00:01:57,841
tutorial used that folder.

34
00:01:57,841 --> 00:02:01,293
For this web workflow, Drafts is the documented waiting place.

35
00:02:01,293 --> 00:02:05,090
Another mistake is choosing a time in the wrong time zone.

36
00:02:05,090 --> 00:02:08,541
Compare the time shown in Outlook with your written plan.

37
00:02:08,541 --> 00:02:12,338
If it differs, cancel the schedule and set a new time

38
00:02:12,338 --> 00:02:14,755
before a real recipient could be affected.

39
00:02:15,355 --> 00:02:19,382
The answer check asks for a specific match: the fictional subject

40
00:02:19,382 --> 00:02:24,875
and self-recipient appear in Drafts, and the scheduled time is still in the future.

41
00:02:24,875 --> 00:02:28,170
Record whether your interface shows Cancel send or Edit.

42
00:02:28,170 --> 00:02:31,832
Neither control needs to be selected to confirm the schedule.

43
00:02:31,832 --> 00:02:35,860
A future account test can verify delivery separately; the local diagram

44
00:02:35,860 --> 00:02:39,888
does not claim that a message was actually scheduled or received.
