Add "Delay delivery" to outlook.com (web) and mobile apps
STRONGLY AGREE
I worked in Help Desk / IT support for 4 years, now I am a research lab tech.
I have been asked hundreds of times by engineers, sales, HR, and even executives on how to enable this basic function. As it's VITAL in avoiding sending accidental emails with the wrong recipients, attachments (as well as missing attachments) and typos.
It's a daily occurrence where the phone user accidently clicks send on an incomplete email and now looks unprofessional to the rest of the company, and even potential clients and/or contractors as these accidents occur constantly.
Now that I work in a research lab and have to use my personal phone to collaborate with photos on testing, these mistakes have happened to me a handful of times and makes me seem incompetent or "sloppy" in my work.
It's definitely not a huge ask to add a global 5 - 10 second delay option (with a 1-click "cancel send" function) for users to prevent these accidents from happening that could potentially cost them their job, sponsors, contracts, etc...
