But, while the latest version of Microsoft&#8217;s productivity suite &#8212; Office 365 Home Premium &#8212; includes the ability to access the apps on the web, ultimately it is still a software suite on your computer.<\/p>\n<p>Now Microsoft Research wants to bring new functionality to the desktop version of Outlook and is announcing the release of <a href=\"http:\/\/research.microsoft.com\/en-us\/downloads\/51921c43-790c-439c-bed4-b1823f937afd\/default.aspx?utm_source=feedly\" >Ma\u00f1ana Mail<\/a>\u00a0to do just that.<\/p>\n<p>Ma\u00f1ana, Spanish for &#8220;tomorrow&#8221;, lives up to its name by allowing users to schedule an email\u00a0to be sent at midnight.\u00a0Outlook does not need to be running in order for the message to go out, and you can still edit or cancel the message up until midnight. The new Outlook plugin also adds a feature that has been available in Gmail for sometime &#8212; Undo Send. This means that every\u00a0message is held for 15 seconds before being sent, during which time you can click &#8220;undo&#8221; to get it back.<\/p>\n<p>Many users, especially in business, still prefer their email to be desktop-based so it&#8217;s good to see that Microsoft is still paying attention to this, as opposed to focusing completely\u00a0on the web version of the email app.<\/p>\n<p>credit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/gallery-131473p1.html\" >Gina Sanders<\/a>\/<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shutterstock\/\" >Shutterstock<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=_1syWHi68ZY:7ub3iR5xBDU:qj6IDK7rITs\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=qj6IDK7rITs\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.betanews.com\/~ff\/bn?a=_1syWHi68ZY:7ub3iR5xBDU:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/bn?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/bn\/~4\/_1syWHi68ZY\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most of the focus these days seems to be around Outlook.com, as Microsoft anxiously endeavours to move its apps online and turn software into a service.
