I'd like to automate the task of sending 5 emails each morning when Outlook
starts and 5 different ones at a later time in the day each weekday. Is that
possible?

Thanking you in advance
 
Hi Mike,

if OL starts each morning then you could use the Application_Startup
event for the first 5 mails. For the next 5 you could create these mails
and set the DeferredDeliveryTime.
 
Michael,

Thanks for the info. Is there anyway to automate the creation and timing of
the later 5 e-mails with out me having to remeber to type each one and set
the defered send time daily?

Again thanks
 
Hi Mike,

function names for different ways:

1) Creating new items: Application.CreateItem
2) Using an *.oft template: Application.GetItemFromTemplate
3) Copying an item from your Drafts Folder: MailItem.Copy

This can be done also in Application_Startup, so there´s no need for
remember you doing that.

Sample for DeferredDeliveryTime:

DeferredDeliveryTime = Date & " " & #11:30:00 AM#

The Date function returns the current date, the time part is constant
each day.
