Subject: Send mail at a specific time

Message-ID: <m3yayzsusq.fsf@sade.uio.no> (raw)

I would like to see a feature in Gnus that would allow me to write some
messages, schedule them to be sent at some time, and still be able to
make changes in them up till the time they're sent.  This would look
like `nndraft', obviously, except that it shall allow me to designate
the mails to be sent some time in the future.  This would require some
use of the daemon, I would think.

Is this useful?  Well, suppose you want your boss to think that you work
really hard.  Then you assign Gnus to send him a mail at 08:00 the
following day, so that you can come in late.  Now how's that for
usefulness?  :-)

Fredrik
