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?

    Yes but it contains very little detail, and has been marked as "in review" for over a year. Both should be voted for, but in the interest of giving MSFT a nudge and a specific detailed ask, suggest this one appears more appropriate:

    Is there any update about this issue?

    The defer delivery rules is important! Would you please solve this?

    Thanks
