Feature

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Sometimes I know that I want to send an email at a certain time. For example, a reminder email to my workgroup shortly before the deadline or before a meeting. But I want to work on it now, because I have just the time for it and Mail should send it at the desired time or at the next possible time where a network connection exists. This has the advantage that on the one hand I get the topic out of my head and on the other hand possible deadlines can be met.

Describe the solution you'd like I'm just thinking about how to create an event in Calendar. I can choose the day and even the time. Maybe it even makes sense that I can make certain recurring settings similar to a Calendar event. For example, we always meet on the 1st of the month. And I want to send the reminder email with the same or similar text one week before to collect agenda items. Mail could help me to organize this. In such a case it might be a good idea if the email subject/body can still be adjusted and edited before it is sent. In case I need to make any adjustments.

Existing work Currently I'm not using an email client that has this feature, but I've read from some who can. For example the former Nylas Client, now Mailspring.

I'm just thinking, couldn't the feature also be connected with the Calendar app or existing/shared Online Accounts?
