Have You Ever Sent an Email Message and Regretted It?


Maybe you were angry and responded hastily with words you wished you could take back. Maybe you addressed the email message to the wrong person, and it contained confidential information. Maybe you forgot to write all the information you wanted to. Or maybe the email contained mistakes you wanted to edit.

DelayGuard lets you change your mind even after clicking send. It keeps email messages in your Microsoft Outlook outbox folder for a set number of minutes before actually sending them out.




Delay Delivery of Email Messages with DelayGuard

  • Maintain professionalism and accuracy: DelayGuard holds back your emails for a set period instead of sending messages immediately. This gives you time to rewrite or cancel emails if you change your mind.

  • Stop confidential information from leaking: Configure DelayGuard based on your preferred protection level. Delay delivery of all emails, emails to certain domains, or all emails outside of your company's domain.

  • Send messages immediately when it matters: While you can set up DelayGuard to automatically delay delivery, you can still send urgent emails instantly, ensuring important information gets out ASAP.
