From the Help file ("Hidden Preferences"):


Delayed sending

MailMate has a “Send Later” feature, but it has to be set on a 
message by message basis.


You can set a default delay for all outgoing messages by modifying the 
MmSendMessageDelayEnabled and MmSendMessageDelay hidden preferences.


You have to turn default delay on:

defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmSendMessageDelayEnabled -bool YES

And then set the delay duration (in seconds):

defaults write com.freron.MailMate MmSendMessageDelay -integer 180

The command above sets a delay of 3 minutes.

Once this feature is enabled, you can cancel sending a message by 
selecting it in the Drafts folder and using “Message ▸ Cancel Send 
and Edit” (⌥⇧⌘D).


I have set my default to 120 (which results in "2 minutes" being 
displayed in the "Send Later" header field). When I realize that there's 
a typo (inevitable) or that I'd like to reformulate or add something, 
I'll do the cancel send and edit thing.


When I want to send something tomorrow at 9am, I replace the "Send 
Later" header and write "tomorrow 9am" in it. The field accepts quite a 
bit of syntax and turns red if it can't parse what you wrote.

Just to add to your very good description of the feature: be warned that 
sometimes the interpretation of said syntax (I guess via a system API) 
creates surprising results - try to make it as explicit as possible. 
Just my 2c

Thanks to all who answered, I should have found this by myself but 
apparently I'm getting half-blind or something.

You can enable the Send Later field when you compose an email, then type 
in a natural language time. There's a drop-down menu to the left of the 
Signature drop-down, that contains Send Later. Turn it on. You can 
change the defaults using a command-line command that Benny will have to 
tell you (I forgot it). And you can make it display permanently. I have 
all my mails delayed 10 minutes so I can change my mind. And I schedule 
mails for the next day sometimes to slow down an email exchange that is 
turning into a "chat."

There should be a little drop-down menu, to the left of the 
’Signature’ drop-down menu. From there, you can choose to add 
several fields… BCC, Reply-To, Send Later, Tags.
