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

    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.

    @Libeamlak - Any progress on this one? Can you share when the setting for delayed sending more than 10sec is coming out?

    Ugh how annoying. Just sent a message, and of course I remembered one additional detail 11 seconds after sending. Just in time to see the "Undo" dialog disappear after the longest-available 10-second delay.
