Never Send An Email In Anger Saving Your Career Fri, Feb 7, 2003 In response to Never Send An Email In Anger, Lars Bergstrom recommended that I set up a rule that defers sending an email for 1 minute. I set it for 2 minutes under Outlook XP like so: Tools->Rules Wizard New Start From A Blank Rule Check messages after sending Which condition(s) do you want to check? -> None This rule will be applied to every message you send. Is this correct? -> Yes What do you want to do with this message? -> defer delivery by a number of minutes a number of minutes -> 2 Finish And it works like a charm. It's always w/in the first second that I wish I could recall a message, so two minutes should be more than enough. Wahoo! [the spout] 11:45:10 AM    comment []
