Available now to who are enrolled in the Fast ring of the early-access program, the Send Later feature does just what its name suggests. Outlook's Send button now features a drop-down menu that allows users to select the option and set a date and time they wish the email to leave their drafts folder, similar to the Delay Delivery option in the Windows version of the software. When the time arrives, the email is automatically sent. Not running Outlook at that moment? No problem, says Microsoft.

According to the software maker, the email will be delivered even if users forget to leave Outlook open. Office Insiders can access Send Later in version 15.36 (build 170606) of Outlook 2016. Microsoft expects to make the feature available to all Office 365 subscribers next month.

As expected, a read receipt indicates an email was opened while a delivery receipt confirms that an email has been deposited into a recipient's email account, but not necessarily read. The ability to drag and drop emails into the calendar and tasks views in Outlook, along with email templates and delivery and read receipts functionality, are available now in version 15.35 (build 170610) of Outlook for all Office 365 users.
