Does outlook really send scheduled messages if your pc is turned off? I tried doing this a couple times scheduled for the AM so people wouldnt have to receive emails late at night but it never works

I don’t think it sends them if you’re not on outlook

EY2 - it doesn’t.

Use the web version if you want to delay a message. Then it doesn't matter if your PC is on or off.

You’re computer has to be on and outlook open for delayed delivery to work.

This. Although your computer can be locked and they’ll still go out.

Your computer has to be on and connected to the internet, can’t be in sleep mode either.

If you use the web outlook then it will send regardless of whether your computer is on or not.

What’s the issue with sending emails at night? I see no point in pretending you’re not working when you are.

Let me rephrase.... it seems like you’re going to a lot of trouble to not *bother* anyone. People elect their own push notifications and if someone doesn’t want late night emails let them handle it. People can also have opinions on working hours. However, delaying emails = delaying a response to your email. It is in everyone’s best interest that you either ignore whatever pressure you’re getting or discuss it with that person. No one should care when you work and you’re complicating a non issue. If someone cares that is their problem. Period.

I have been working like a dog for two weeks none stop for an emergency on a case. As the only junior, I’m juggling 10 different things on the case and still meeting deadlines. Worst of all, the partner asks me to complete drafts of documents by last night so we can have them finalized for the client. Work like hell ALL day to get them done - partner doesn’t even review them to send to the client and meet his own deadline. This is honestly a thankless job.
