[Kolab-devel] [issue1403] delayed email sending on server

[Bernhard Reiter]

New submission from Bernhard Reiter <bernhard at intevation.de>:

It would be nice to have a way to delay sending     
of emails, so that emails will get send at a special    
date and time.    
   
This use case comes from someone considering Kolab for production.   
   
* Should be independent from a running client.    
  Conclusing: Must be server based.   
* Needs client support, because the user must be able to    
  time the sending.   
  + Solve the usability problems with the sending date  
    and the position in send objects.  
* The list of delayed emails must be accessible and it 
  must be possible to change sending date/time redraw the email. 
 
Ideas: 
+ Research if there is a postfix solution for this already. 
+ use a special imap folder for this? 
+ use a header that gives the server instructions 
+ have a webinterface to display the list of queued messages
