How to snooze an email in the desktop version of Outlook?
Hi JacKonZ
Kindly follow
1. Select the email or right click the selected email
2. Click on Follow-up > Add Reminder
This will give you the option to set reminder and snooze the email option when the reminder pops up.

KellyK38 Faraz nor myself work for Microsoft, and Microsoft isn't answering this for some reason (perhaps because they don't care).
I wholeheartedly agree that the workaround we give is not an answer. I also agree that all platforms of Outlook (Mac/Linux/Android/IOS) functions and operations should match. I am aggravated by the fact that online Outlook doesn't allow you to add other online accounts, nor reflect what the PC or Phone app accounts have listed. It's like MS is purposely creating multiple email software packages, different from each other, and slapping a generic name of Outlook on it.
However, I am getting away from the point of this response. We gave information to best help a tough situation. We don't deserve to be spoken to like it's our personal fault that this problem exists, when we were simply trying to help people create a 'fix' that we both know does work, even if it's not the solution we want from Redmond. Thank you very much for considering other people's help as such instead of the negative criticism. Have a great day!

One workaround I found is to forward the e-mail to yourself and use the Delay Delivery option to "Snooze" the email until whenever you want to see it again at the top of your inbox. Then you can move the original email into a folder and your inbox is clean.
