Adding a Send Delay to outgoing emails on the New Outlook

Hello!

On the "Old version" of Outlook, it was relatively straightforward to add a send delay of, for example, 1 minute to outgoing emails, where the email is automatically stored in "Outgoing messages" for 1 minute before it is sent to the recipient. During this time you could make any changes to the email - re-read it, check and correct potential typos, etc. This could be done via a custom rule.

However, in the "New Outlook", this functionality appears to be removed. I was able to find an option to "Undo Send" for 10 seconds after send-out, however, 10 seconds isn't a lot of time.

Is it possible to add a send-delay to outgoing email in the "New Outlook" or was this functionality removed from the software?

    I tried to adopt the new outlook, but with out this email delay function, am moving back to the old outlook as I rely on it too much.

    I agree as well and am also staying on the older Outlook client until this feature is available in the newer client.

    Dear Microsoft team, this feature is critical to our business. The lack of this feature in the new Outlook is a major drawback. We have decided not to upgrade to the new Outlook until this feature is available. Please, add this feature back. Thank you
