Just set a rule to delay delivery on all emails like 1-2 minutes. Plenty of time to catch things. You can also set a condition to send immediately, like if itâs marked âimportantâ.
Beware if you use Outlook. With that rule your mail wonât get sent at all from time to time and is stuck in your outgoing folder. I have not further investigated when it happens.
I actually have experienced this rarely, too - what works for me is either to manually re-send or to just copy the email contents over and send a new email. It seems to happen most when I try to edit or view an email that is being held by the rule in the outbox.
That said, I havenât had this happen in quite a while, and it wasnât a super common occurrence for me.
