Google User (ID: 000000379b8de0b5) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/28/2022 Glad the developer is attentive. I just sent him a problem ticket, scheduled email still not working. But I do appreciate the attitude (even if it's just talk) 😜

Dávid Bendes (ID: 000000686412babc) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/07/2021 Totally important setup; I wonder why google itself hasn't implemented it / why it totally ignores locale settings in Windows?! An improvement suggestion: should apply date format for opened mail header as well!
