When I want to make sure that I don’t accidentally send something I set a long sending delay, changing my default of ‘5 minutes’ to 5 ‘years’. MailMate accepts ‘5 years’, but can you believe that it does not recognize ‘5 decades’!
It'll work in the next update (quick fix) - just in case ;-)
I apologize for the non-serious email…the flexibility of MailMate never ceases to astound me, in this case that it actually accepts years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, min, seconds, sec …so I decided to pretend to take umbrage at the fact that it does not recognize ‘decades’.
I should note that the feature is not as robust as it should be. The send later “value” does not survive if the local database index is lost. In other words, the email I scheduled to be sent to myself in 10 years (as a test) is unlikely to ever actually be sent. It would be surprisingly tricky to make the feature robust without introducing the risk of sending a message multiple times (not a quick fix).
