I want to send an email at a future date and time. When I click on the "send later" feature, the email immediately goes to my outbox. I receive no dialogue box to select a date and time. My only option is to send it now from the outbox.

Look for the Send Later add-on.

I would appreciate some insight about this add-on.

After setting the time and date for the message to be sent, I don't see how to save the information. The only way to exit the window is to press the X in the upper right corner, thus presumably deleting the information.

If the send-later information is really saved and my message is ready to go at the designated time, how would I know?
