Important:

• When item.delayDeliveryTime.setAsync is used to schedule the delivery of a message, the delay is processed on the server. This allows the message to be sent even if the Outlook client isn't running. In classic Outlook on Windows, the message doesn't appear in the Outbox folder, so you won't be able to edit the message or cancel its delivery after selecting Send. You'll only be able to review the message from the Sent Items folder. In Outlook on the web, on Mac, and in new Outlook on Windows, the message appears in the Drafts folder until the scheduled delivery time. While it's in the Drafts folder, you'll be able to edit the message before it's sent. To learn more, see Manage the delivery date and time of a message.

• The setAsync method isn't supported on a message that's currently loaded using the loadItemByIdAsync method. For more information, see Activate your Outlook add-in on multiple messages.

Errors:

• InvalidFormatError - The format of the specified data object is not valid.
