How to Use the Snooze Feature in Outlook for Better Email Management

The Outlook snooze feature “snoozes” emails for a certain amount of time; thus, they disappear until you have time to handle them properly. After the desired period of time, they reappear in your inbox. This helps you avoid losing important messages in a cluttered inbox. You can postpone an email with a simple click to read it and respond when you have the time.
