Hey everyone

Hoping someone can help me! I Am having the following problem: I can’t use the send later function - when I click that button it just goes grey adn does nothing! My inbox is connected and I can send now so I don’t think that is the problem - anyway I send from hubspot rather than my inbox. I’ve also not exceeded my email limit.

Any ideas??!!!

TIA

Hi @EMorrell2,

Which browser are you using, have you tried another browser? Have you tried clearing cache/cookies? Is there a tool-tip when you hover your mouse over the button once it turns gray?

Best regards

Hi @karstenkoehler

Thanks for your message! I have tried it in a new browser and clearing my cache. Neither workds. The tip says “Send Later isn’t available for Hubspot Hosted email accounts” but I don’t know what that means. Also I have used send later before!

Does tht make sense?

@EMorrell2 can you double check which email account you’re sending this from (in the email

composer)? It sounds like this may have changed to a fallback address of a conversations inbox. Make sure your personal email is connected (in the settings) and selected as sender address

Hi @karstenkoehler Thanks for this idea. The email address is the correct sender email so that isn’t the problem.

Chat support is basically sales support for free version users

Hi @RAdam,  
I see that you are not able to use the ‘Send Later’ functionality when sending a Sales email.  
Can you confirm that your [inbox is successfully connected in Hubspot](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/one-to-one-email/schedule-a-one-to-one-email-from-the-crm#:~:text=Please%20note%3A%20your%20inbox%20must%20be%20successfully%20connected%20in%20order%20to%20schedule%20an%20email%20for%20later.%20Gmail%2C%20Office%20365%2C%20and%20IMAP%20connected%20inboxes%20support%20the%20send%20later%20feature%20when%20scheduling%20emails%20from%20the%20CRM.) under Settings \> General \> Email?  
Are you also able to reproduce this in an[incognito window](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/Lead-Capture-Tools/Why-use-incognito-windows-for-troubleshooting-forms/m-p/469462)?

I have tried it in Safari and Firefox, I’ve cleared all the cache / cookies and there is no tool-tip. I have worked out that it only happens if I am trying to reply to an email sent by the client / prospect. If it’s a brand new email it works fine.

Hey @EMorrell2 - thanks for following up here!  
I’d like to re-tag @karstenkoehler to see if he has any further ideas of what may be causing this behavior.
