Snooze Emails (Hide Until a Specified Date and Time)

Please add a Snooze feature that allows users to temporarily hide an email from the Inbox until a selected date and time.

When an email is snoozed:

  • The email is removed from the Inbox immediately.

  • The user can choose a predefined or custom date and time.

  • At the scheduled time, the email automatically reappears in the Inbox as if it had just arrived.

  • No changes are made to the email content or metadata except for the snooze state.

  • Snoozed emails should be accessible through a dedicated "Snoozed" view or folder until they reappear.

Benefits:

  • Keeps the Inbox focused on actionable emails.

  • Supports time-based task management without creating calendar entries or reminders.

  • Reduces the need for temporary folders or manual follow-up reminders.

  • Aligns HCL Notes with functionality available in modern email clients such as Gmail and Microsoft Outlook.

    Asking again...

    Workspace: Notes, Verse on Premises, Verse Mobile · Category: Mail template

    Problem. Users keep mails in the inbox as reminders because there is no way to hide a mail and get it back later. Follow-up flags and Needs Action list the mail elsewhere, but the inbox stays cluttered. Gmail, Outlook and Fastmail all offer snooze; snooze ideas on this portal so far cover only calendar alarms.

    Proposal. Add a Snooze action (later today, tomorrow, next week, pick a date). The mail leaves the inbox and returns to the top, marked unread, at that time. Store the wake-up time in the document and let a server task move it back, so snooze works the same in Notes, Verse and Verse Mobile through Traveler. Add a Snoozed view, and an option to snooze a sent mail so it comes back if nobody replied.

    Benefit. A cleaner inbox, fewer forgotten follow-ups, and parity with every mainstream mail client.

    Related. VRSOP-I-539, NTS-I-88 (alarm snooze only).

    How this differs. Both related ideas snooze calendar alarms, not mail. This one snoozes the mail document itself, with a server-side wake-up so the result is the same in Notes, Verse and on Traveler devices. It is a new request, not a duplicate.
