Sending mail @ specific time

I was wondering if there's any way I can write e-mails and then have them not be sent until a specific time and it be automated? If possible would I do this in Mail or Automator?

I already do that for bills etc
I was looking for the ability to actually writing an email today and have it be sent of tomorrow automatically. No drafts and me sending it just to do it at 7AM for example instead of when I get around to it.

Problem only comes, when i send 2nd time or more. What is the problem? Please help me out.
Thanks for your response in advance. One more thing, Whether to send a mail & receive a mail, we need to create different sessions. one for sending & one for receiving mails.

I don't see anything obviously wrong in your code. Try adding
session.setDebug(true);
You can use the same Session for sending and for reading.
A Session just encapsulates your configuration parameters,
so as long as they're the same for both usages, one Session
is fine.

Since the last update can't send mail every time I must enter my iCloud password.

I Have a iPhone 6 and a ipad 4. Since the last update only on my phone when I try to send mail a box pops up & I have to enter my iCloud password. It's very annoying. I don't have this issue on my ipad and as I said it started after the last update. Anyone have an answer what's going on & how to fix it.
Thanks would really appreciate any help

Hi Gizzymoeaiden,
If you are having an issue with your iPhone asking for your iCloud password each time you try to send mail, it may be necessary to reset the password of the Apple ID you are using for iCloud. See this article for how -
Apple ID: Changing your password - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Sending mail multiple times after IOS 4 upgrade

I have an iPhone 3G and my friend has an iPhone 3GS, and we have both upgraded to IOS 4 in the last 24 hours. We have both had the experience of a single mail being sent multiple times to all the recepients. I have a feeling that it may have something to do with if the mail fails to send the first time it tries, it then sits in the outbox and keeps on sending. The mail appears in my sent items every time it is sent. We are using Exchange.
Any help would be appreciated.

Having the same problems with my "PTD" email account. Before iOS 4 it worked fine, now I can receive emails with no issues but I cannot send them, they will not go through.

Set a specific time to send email with an attachment ? Possible ?

Is it possible to set a specific time to send an email with an attachment automatically ?
if yes, what is the trick for Mail 4.4.
Thanks in Advance.

Open Automator, click on Mail on the left pane and look around. The description of each action is pretty good.
Pretty much your workflow should look like something like this:
*Get specified finder items
*New mail message
*Send outgoing messages

Sending Messages at a Specific Time?

Does anyone know if there's a way to keep outgoing messages in your Outbox and not send them immeadietly without Saving for Later?
Sometimes I'll write an email late at night, but don't want it to send until say 8 a.m. Is there a way to set the message not to send until then or to tell the outbox to send mail at a specific time?
Perhaps a way to set Automator to send the messages at a speciifc time?

I laughed because I found the Mail Scripts, and was just about to reply, when I saw that you had posted the answer already, Austin! I'm glad I know about those scripts--they'd be useful for many people who use Mail.
Well, there you go, bdiesel, question fully answered!
All the best.

How many mails i can send at a time per day using APEX mail system?

HI,
I am working on application, when i have written a process to send mail, i have a project where i have to send mail at a time for all the email id's
given list there are upto 5000 email id's where text body also include certain set of data from a report. thinking at a time 3000 its difficult i divided

can any one help me to know How many mails i can send at a time per day using APEX mail system?
Thanks in advance
Gowthami

Hi jfosteroracle,
You are getting the error may be the following reason,
Check the following,
Login as ADMIN and Goto -->Manage Instance-->Instance Settings--> Mail-->Maximum Emails per workspace
Actually this number denotes the Number of mails can be sent per 24 hour for the workspace,It may exceeded.
It may be the reason.
Thank you.

"This message cannot be sent at this time." I have been getting this pop-up for 3 days when trying to send out mail. I don't know what to do! I cannot send mail from this account on any ISP. Please help!

lots of people seem to be havgin a problem sending email from iCloud webmail.
does your email address have uppercase characters in it?
if so, try creating an alias in lowercase (go to preferences in iCloud webmail and select 'accounts') and see if email sends okay from that

SquirrelMail Takes a long time to send mail

Am running SquirrelMail 1.4.10a in Tiger Server.
Users can login, receive mail, compose new mail, and read mail fine. My problem is when a user sends mail, it takes up to 45 secs to complete the send. The sent email will show up in the "Sent" folder okay and it is sent, however, it never closes out of the "Compose" window and seems to time out.
Any ideas?
Do I need to add a hosts file or edit an entry into my current hosts file?
Thank you,
Steve K

Hi Steve,
I'm having the same problem with 2 server that I'm running, web mail runs perfect but the compose window won't refresh after clicking on send!! didi you have any luck fixing this issue? i found out that for some people restarting apache would help but not for me!! maybe you should try!!

How to send one single mail each time a table is updated with a batch of rows

Hi!
I would like to send one mail each time an integrations services inserts a batch of rows. I,ve tested with this code but it sends one mail for each row that is inserted to the table. How to adjust the code below so it only sends one email?
Br Arne
CREATE TRIGGER trao_FOBOSTAFKbelopp
ON FOBOSTAFKbelopp
AFTER INSERT
AS
BEGIN
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name = 'ArneSqlDatabasemail',
@recipients = '[email protected]',
@subject = 'Ny förkalkyl',
@body = 'Hej!
En ny förkalkyl har registrerats.
För att titta på den klicka på bifogad länk.
Hälsningar
Arne'
END
Arne Olsson

That is because the process is inserting the rows one at a time.
I would suggest changing your trigger to "log" the changed rows into a table, and then have a process which reads the log and generates the email.

Sending mail to agent at run time determination

hi all
i have a problem sending mail to the person who has been identified on runtime basis.
scenario is that i have created a custome rule to determine the person (partner function) on run time basis but problem is that i need to send only mail to that person not the object. as you may be aware we cant use rule in send mail step
is there any way i can send mail only in this scenario
help will definitely be appreciated
regards
ashish

You need to store the agents that is getting retrieved from the rule in a Container element and use this isn the Expression of the send mail task.
Use FM RH_GET_ACTORS to retrieve agent from Rule by using coding in method of respective BO.
Thanks

Mail doesn't send half the time

My SMTP server is TalkTalk ( UK) and when I send mail it works fine... half the time.
The other half I get the 'sending' wheel spinning. nothing in my activity window, and eventually the following alert:
<Cannot send message using the server smtp.talktalk.net>
Sometimes, the message appears simultaneously as I get the 'whoosh' of sent mail and when I 'Try with Selected Server' the email goes immediately, and my correspondents report a double post!
Other times, I get no whoosh, I 'Try With Selected server' and then I get the whoosh.
So the server is fine.
There is something wrong with my mac
any ideas?
peter

I will ask them what their time-out is, thanks.
I tend to avoid automated downloads/uploads and have everything set to manual, as I use my mac for audio production and don't like the idea of background tasks suddenly kicking in ( while perhaps recording or rendering is taking place) . It probably doesn't matter with the new processors, but it's a habit I will stick to until proven unnecessary.
What I should really do is have a boot partition just for audio, but I rather like being able to instantly switch tasks - I have a very disorganised lifestyle
'Blink': sorry - this is jargon from my online conferencing system, cix. It uses a Mail-type reader to run conversations offline rather than using it as an online forum. It means a simultaneous upload/download of messages.
