Hi, this is regarding Outlook app's delay delivery feature. I'm using Outlook 2016 app, with an @outlook.com email address. I suppose this uses IMAP? I'm not sure, as the setup wizard easily got my mailbox set up into the app.
When an email is set to be sent at a specific time, let's say 2 days from today, and if I close the Outlook app or do not turn on my laptop for 5 days, then that email does not get sent until I reopen Outlook App 5 days later.
Closing Outlook app will give a notification of whether I wish to "Don't Exit" or "Exit and Send Later"
How can I push the message in the outbox onto the online servers? So that even with the Outlook app closed, my mail will still send as scheduled?
Please explain in detail about the cache exchange settings etc, and how I can set my mailbox to function as desired, i.e. send a mail even with the app closed.
I'm sure someone at Microsoft will have an answer to this? Thanks all!
