Snoozemail

The other day my friend Jeff asked me if there was a way to “delay” email. We looked around for a service that would let us do this, but couldn’t really find anything. So I threw together snoozemail… it’s a couple of Python scripts and a cronjob, nothing fancy, but I thought it might be useful to some people:

Forward an email to snoozemail and it comes back to you a specified number of days later. I’m not planning on adding any more to it, but if you find a good use for it, let me know!

    I think the above two posters kinda miss the point,

    I think the scenario is more like

    I open my email client and there is the usual stuff that has to be dealt with right away plus other stuff that is important but that doesn’t need doing right now, using something like snoozemail I can send it back out into the ether and when it arrives back in my inbox it now forms part of the group of messages that I have to deal with right now.

    It would be handy to have a button in my email client marked ’snooze’ that just sent the message back the following day, I can always just keep hitting the snooze button till I either deal with it or ring in sick :)

    Here’s an idea, if anyone wants it. Create a mail service that only delivers incoming email at predetermined times during the day. I.e. 10am, 2pm and 5pm. This will reduce randomization due to incoming email.
