Development of Paul's script and mine were mostly independent, I think. I wanted a script that would help me clean up my inbox -- the "postpone" part was the result of that. About that time somebody asked on the list for a delayed-send script, and I realized that my postpone script could almost do the delayed sends already. It was a natural extension. I don't exactly remember how much Paul helped with that particular script, but I know my 100+ scripts would never have come into being without Paul. I was going to list him as co-author on a bunch of them, but he refused. =) >> Mine is really set up to do Repeat Sends as well - on a regular schedule. it >> has a very method to do that which seems to work well. i don't think Bryan's >> does that, does it Bryan?

My script is pretty simple; it doesn't create any copies, it just moves messages and changes received-dates. If you want to do repeat sends with mine, I'd suggest duplicating the draft message a few times and varying the delay on the sends. (As a note, I think much of the reason why Paul's script is more complex than mine is that I think he creates folders with the send-date as the name. My script puts all postponed/delayed send messages into a "Postponed" folder, and uses the date received field as the date to act on. I like my way because it's easier to go back and find a message you've postponed since they're all in one place, but your date received field gets overwritten; I've only ever cared about the date-sent, so it wasn't a big deal to me, and for draft messages the date received field is unused by 'rage. It's handy because you can show and sort-on the date-received column, which tells you when it's going to be sent/moved to the Inbox. Paul's scripts don't modify the date received field.) >2.
