How to snooze an email in the desktop version of Outlook?
JacKonZ Outlook desktop doesn't yet have the snooze option. You will need to outlook on the web or outlook mobile to snooze messages.
If you set a flag, you'll need to move the message out of the inbox yourself if you want it out of sight until the reminder time.

Are you familier maybe with 3rd party tools that offer this for outlook?

JacKonZ QuickFile has a snooze feature - Quickfile Email Organiser | Email Management - Standss

Hello. That company is defunct (there is no support, but they will auto-take your money for a purchase). However, a very similar, and perhaps better version (with support) is 'SimplyFile' from a company called TechHit. I am a user, no other vested interest. The focus of the add-in is intelligent one-click filing of your emails, but one of the other features is snoozing emails.
Note, I am talking about Outlook for desktop - PC.
All the best, Desmond.

Had not thought of this before! if you snooze on your phone, it ALSO snoozes the message in your inbox on Desktop.
I just had a PERFECT example of a tracking number that does not come up in UPS's system yet, but probably will tomorrow morning, so snoozed it on my phone, which I keep on a stand right next to my keyboard, and expect to see this message at 8AM in my inbox tomorrow !
I just saw this thread and you've prpobably already found a good solution, but I'm adding this to my organizational tools!

DavidThomasson i tried this workaround, and the snoozed emails re-appear at the new time/ date on my phone (and also in web version) but not on desktop version of outlook. do i have a setting wrong somewhere?
- DavidThomassonMay 11, 2023Copper ContributorI just tested snoozing your email on my phone. It hid it in the outlook desktop app, then dropped it back into the desktop inbox on schedule. I can verify that it 'does' work but not 'why' it worked for me and not on your set up. ??
