Hello Victor_Ivanidze,

 

Have your already developed the add-in? I am going crazy looking for answers on how to stop receiving and sending message around the complete organization out of working hours.

 

Thanks a lot!!

    I love this development. But the fact that it adds a specific subject to the sent emails in off hours, gives away the whole point of the application!

      I would love to. But company policy won’t let me buy software outside of our IT services.

        InesP400  As well this software was written by a Russian company.  Most IT departments these days will not allow software from outside.  Even if the software was written so it can be installed without ADMIN requirements,  doesn't mean you should do it.

      You know, InesPS, sometimes we have to pay to get something.

      InesPS Only the test version does that. If you buy the application from the person who developed it (not me, but I did buy it and found the price incredibly reasonable) that tag goes away.

    When I try to send a message after hours that's qued in the outbox for the next delivery day, the subject line of the email contains [OffHoursDEMO] Can I somehow get that to disappear for any messages that I decide I want to send immediately even if it's after hours?

        This is amazing. Bought the full version after trying demo (within about 5 minutes). So surprised at its functionality (and that was able to be downloaded on my work computer). I may have follow up questions but wanted to express my gratitude.

    Victor_Ivanidze Does this work when using the Outlook Mobile app?

      Hi travisdy,

       

      no, the add-in is compatible only with Outlook for Windows.

       

      In theory you can create a Power Automate flow with the same functionality that will work with any e-mail client.
