webdigi / gmailscheduler Goto Github PK

I just installed GmailScheduler. So far, I'm loving it.

I realize that Gmail sorts its labels. But I am curious if app script could be modified to improve sorting. For example, could the script ignore text between square brackets "[" and "]"?

If so, then I could sort/organize my labels in the following way:
[01] 2 hours from now
[02] 4 hours from now
[03] 8 hours from now
[04] 12 hours from now
[05] ---------------------
[06] 1 day from now
[07] 2 days from now
[08] 3 days from now
[09] 4 days from now
[10] 5 days from now
[11] 6 days from now
[12] ---------------------
[13] 1 week from now
[14] 2 weeks from now

etc...

Hi!

I see that this scheduler creates new labels for sending e.g. "gscheduler-queue-wednesday-april-13,-2016-1:07:49pm".

I want to use this a lot. Does that mean that after a while, there are hundreds of extra labels created?
Or will they automatically delete?

Grtz,
Pieter

If I am called John Doe and my email address is [email protected], the email will appear as if it were sent by john.doe instead of John Doe. I'm using this script on a Google Apps domain. Any idea why this is happening?

It's movedraftstoinbox,processsms.

When approving a script to manage my inbox, I would love to know what the security implications are. Is there any chance some external server gets access to my account? Could you maybe elaborate on the readme?
However, I looked for a script like this for ages. Thanks for putting it up here!

A scheduled mail was sent over 100 times to an forgiving acquaintance.

My suspicion;
Mail sender was a Gmail alias. (sent as other email account), so I suspect that because of this the script was not capable of removing the schedule label.

Firstly, thank you for this wonderful extension. People like you make this world a better place!

I would like to create a label that is just 9am. This way, whether I'm writing the email at 1am (on the same day) or 4pm (the day before), it will always send at the next possible 9am. Currently, if the time is 4pm, and I try to create a label simply called "9am" it says the date has already passed. I'd like to make the logic a bit "smarter" by having it know to use the very next "9am".

Thanks again!

Does adding multiple labels work? Suppose I want to send an email after 2 days and 5 days. Now if I apply this two labels at once, will the email be sent after 2 days and 5 days?

Hi fellas, I have tried with default time zone and 'hand picked' time zone. No matter whether I want emails to be sent 1 hour, 2 hours, or some custom time in the future, they are always sent just a minute or so after I 'send' them after applying the labels that should have them waiting in a queue.

Is it possible any of my ghostery, disconnect, or badger settings are interfering in some way?

Hello,
I have discovered something strange. When you choose say 8 am tomorrow and I have my correct time zone selected (CST for me) it will deliver the email 6 hours before that time. Now, if i choose Greenwich time it will be delivered at the correct time.

this example is set with my correct time zone.

This example is when the time zone is set with greenwich time.

If this is normal I will let it be but if its not I thought I would bring it to your attention.
Thank you for creating this script. Other then this issue we love it.

When you send emails with BCC field, it does not show who you sent it to. How would you be able to get that to show? And is there a way to find out if there are any emails bouncing?

Just realized there's no mention of a license type anywhere. Can you please clarify, and might I suggest the MIT license: http://opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php?

Hi!

Is there a way to schedule emails without using labels? Me and my team would like to schedule emails somehow, but this labeling system isn't flexible enough for us. It would be better if we would be able to set a specific date for each draft (like other scripts do), but of course that would need a different interface for it.

Are there any plans to support this feature?

After I authorize the script, it redirects to setting page. But it's blank page

Hi

I have two gmail accounts and would like to use Gmail Scheduler in both but I can only get it to work in one of them. How can I activate it in the other one also?

Everytime i schedule an email to Facebook, there's a characters added on the original text i send. Example email address is [email protected].

Note:
I send emails on Facebook groups through email to post it to the group automatically without visiting my Facebook account.

Hoping that you will consider solving this concern. Thanks a lot..

I was excited by this because of the stated privacy concerns but it DOES in fact ask for permission to view, compose, send and delete email (see attached). Can anyone comment on this?

Hi,

Thanks for creating the Gmail Scheduler!

I installed the plugin, but when I send an email, it will be send immediately. When I look at the send items I see that the email has the label e.g. "GScheduler/Timer/1 hour later".

I don't understand why it don't work.
Anyone an idea?

Grtz,
Pieter

Hi,

Thanks for the script!

But I have a problem and I can't use it. When I allow the permissions there is still one that it seems I can't grant: Access the app when offline. I keep allowing the access but it doesn't activate. Could it be due to Google Apps?

It is 10:30 pm Central Time (Chicago, Mexico City). If I create a label that says "5:00 am today," it makes a correct label that states "The label 5:00 am today would trigger the email on Sunday September 14, 2014 5:00:00am." If I create a label that says "4:00 am today," it comes back with this message: "Invalid date to "Date in the past / Cannot find date from label name."" The problem continues with times earlier than 4:00 am, such as 3:00 am or 2:00 am. There is no problem for times after 5:00 am such as 6:00 am or 7:00 am. Is there a problem with the date being separate from the GMT? GMT is 6 hours different from Central Time. The error seems to happen six hours in the future. Also, if I put 4:00 am tomorrow, it creates a label too far into the future, Monday September 14. Thank you.

Here are two examples of an error that I receive repeatedly...

If you set your time to GMT, it says:
The label 8:30 would trigger the email on Tuesday March 7, 2017 8:30:00am.
That's right.

Now, if you set it to, say, Mountain, it says:
The label 8:30 would trigger the email on Tuesday March 7, 2017 1:30:00am.
8:30 != 1:30

I find GmailScheduler to extremely useful and configurable, it's is also much less intrusive and resource-intensive on my low powered Chromebook than alternative solutions.

The one issue I have is when I access Settings. I have two accounts on my Chromebook and https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbw6hnnKGeG6xUsbRE9c3WSvJibTbaW88DP9f83e8lFnc1v1kL0/exec always takes me to settings for my secondary Google account, not my primary one. The only workaround I know of is to remove the secondary account from my Chromebook, change my GmailScheduler settings and then add back my secondary account. Any suggestions for a better way?

Thanks,

Hi,

I am using GmailScheduler, it worked nice so far.

However I keep getting it more and more often this message, nearly every day:

"Service using too much computer time for one day
Your script, Gmail Scheduler, has recently failed to finish successfully. A summary of the failure(s) is shown below.
Summary:
Error Message Count - Service using too much computer time for one day: 45"

Does GmailScheduler still work?

Are you low on CPU resources in the google cloud hence we get this?

Can we ignore it?

thanks,

Your readme mentions:

All your emails are private, unlike third party subscription programs that need access to your entire Gmail account with read and write access.

But I have to give the following permissions to the app:

• Read, send, delete, and manage your email
• Manage your calendars
• View and manage data associated with the application
• Allow this application to run when you are not present

That doesn't seem very private, especially since I can't audit the code on the google scripts platform. So I have to trust that the code on github is the same as on the google scripts platform.
Is there an easy way to upload a copy of the code to google scripts with my account?

Gmail Scheduler only detects primary gmail account and hence doesn't have the option to switch between multiple gmail accounts.

Hi There, I can't get it to work. The scheduled draft mail gets sent out immediately instead. Wonder if I'm doing anything wrong?

I'm trying to send an email at a precise time, say 8:30am. If it's 3:30am now and I enter "5 hours later", I get 8:30am. But if I enter "8:30am", I get some other time (right now, it's 16 hours off). I've set the timezone correctly (Pacific).

Screencast:

I am a total noob and got this up and running last year sometime. I have since changed my workflow, so I don't want/need it anymore.

I want to figure out how to uninstall and completely get rid of this app, but I can't find instructions anywhere on how to do so. I don't want the "App Failure" emails to keep coming in and I don't want to just set a filter to auto delete those messages. I want the app totally gone and all of this undone. While I am grateful for free software, it is a failure of the developer to not include uninstall/remove instructions in a prominent location (and in multiple locations).

thanks, Dan

I've added an @hotmail.com account to my @gmail.com account. I create a message using 'from' my @hotmail.com account. It remains correct in the draft message and the queued message. But, when GmailScheduler sends it, it sends it from the @gmail.com account instead.

Maybe this is a feature request, but it would be nice if the 'from' was preserved.

If I get some time, I may take a look at fixing this for you, if there's not an API reason preventing it.

Great tool!!! Thanks!

I am getting a huge code having this error and it is not letting me get the information from a form where I am using it. Anyone has an idea of what might be causing it?

If the reply is in a thread the scheduler will run and remove labels but not send the draft. It does work for brand new emails though.

The email arrives in the inbox with no from name, just the email address the email was sent from e.g. [email protected] or [email protected] - any ideas why this might be? I'm using Google Apps for Business...

Besides the email that was sent containing a link to get to my settings, how can I navigate to my settings without having that direct link? For example, if I was to delete that email by mistake, now how would I get to GmailScheduler's Settings page?

Thanks!

Hey there how do I schedule for 1 year?
