Schedule message to send at a later time
Often some member of our team finds themselves with a good idea or an interesting article that they want to post on MS Teams while it is fresh in their mind... at 6:00AM on a Saturday. This tends to wake people up if they keep Teams on their phone and don't have it on silent. It would be very nice to have the option to be considerate to those still in slumber and schedule a Teams message to go out at a later time. Many SMS messaging apps have this feature these days.

As a manager I would absolutely love to have the ability to set up messages for my team members that notify them on Monday morning. I am often reviewing features and code on the weekend and I don't want them to panic by receiving message from me at that time but I also don't want to forget to mention to them something I thought of.

This would be a great addition to teams, for the reason described in the op. Quite often i want to message me team but dont want it to alert anyone that has it on phones (Or even laptop) as i only want people to review within their working hours (Or close to) i do not want to encourage antisocial working hours.

This is an incredible feature that many other platforms already provide. Please provide this convenience to Microsoft Teams users, seeing that so many people also agree this would be a very helpful and frequently utilized.

Microsoft could solve this by modifying the urgency of messages. In addition to Standard, Important, and Urgent, they could add a Delayed option.

Yo pienso que es muy buena idea implementar los mensajes en espera para luego ser enviados más tarde cuando el remitente esté disponible o conectado

We work with employees in different time zones so we have to be mindful of when we send the message so being able to schedule it for various time zones would also be very nice.

I would love to see this feature rolled out. I tend to come up with ideas or issues late at night and I hate sending them because I don’t want to disrupt my team unless it’s really urgent.

I'd like to see this as well. When I work late nights, it would be useful to be able to schedule when a message is sent so it will be fresh when colleagues are in and not wake up anyone.

With international colleagues, this would be a crucial feature in our collaborative projects! I'd like to send a message right now, but it would ping my co-worker at 12:25am their time. Poor form.

This would be great. I frequently work until 2 in the morning and it would be great to have ideas/instructions arrive as people in different time zones get to their offices.

+1 A Buffer-like feature is a must have
