How to Use Send Later and Undo Send in MacMail

Are you tired of sending emails only to realize that you need to make some last-minute changes? Do you wish you could schedule your emails to send at a later time or recall them once they've been sent? If so, then you'll love the new features in the Mac Mail app in macOS Ventura.

One of the most exciting features is Send Later. This allows you to choose any date and time that you want and schedule your email to be sent at that specific moment. You're no longer limited to sending emails immediately after clicking the Send button. Instead, you can delay the send by up to 9 p.m., giving you plenty of time to make changes or reconsider before your message is delivered.

But what about if you've already hit the Send button and regretted it? That's where Undo Send comes in. This feature allows you to recall an email that has already been sent within a certain delay period, usually set by default to 10 seconds. You can adjust this delay time in Mail Settings under Composing.

So how does it work? Well, when you hit the Send button, your email isn't actually sent immediately. Instead, it's held in a queue for a short period of time before being delivered to the recipient's server. If you change your mind and click the Undo Send button during this delay period, the email will not be sent.

In addition to Send Later and Undo Send, Mac Mail has introduced several other new features in macOS Ventura. To learn more about these updates, check out our YouTube video on 9 New Features in the Mac Mail App.

By taking advantage of these advanced email features, you can increase your productivity and reduce stress when sending emails. Whether you're working on a project or simply want to make sure that your messages are sent at the right time, Send Later and Undo Send are must-know features for anyone using MacMail.
