There are dom senior gay sex videoany number of reasons why it's sometimes a good idea to roll with a write-now-send-later approach to emails.
Maybe you've got a big personal announcement coming up, but it's happening at a very specific time when you won't be around. Perhaps you really want to rave to a friend about everything you loved in Spider-Man: No Way Homewhile it's fresh in your mind, except they're not seeing it until tomorrow.
It's equally helpful at work. Many of our employers have people spread out in different time zones across the country, if not the world. For email-heavy jobs especially, something you send during an Australian co-worker's overnight may get buried; but if you schedule the send, you can ensure it pops up when they're actually awake. Sometimes, too, it's just momentum: You're working hard, rolling through deadline after deadline, and you want to get a jump on future business.

If you're writing from Gmail.com, click the little downward-facing arrow that's on the right side of the "Send" button. And if you're in the app, tap or click the three dots in the top right corner of the email window. Both of these open up more email options; "Schedule send" is the one you're looking for (it'll be the only option that appears when you're writing from a browser).

In most cases that last option is your best bet, but Gmail offers up sensible suggestions like "tomorrow afternoon" or, if you're writing over the weekend "Monday morning."
That's all there is to it! Select the day and time you want to send your email out and Gmail takes care of the rest.
