<p>This module enhances mail threads by using the mail queue by default.</p>
<p>Without this module, Odoo attempts to notify recipients of your message immediately.
If your mail server is slow or you have many followers, this can mean a lot of time.
Install this module and make Odoo more snappy!</p>
<p>All emails will be kept in the outgoing queue by at least 30 seconds,
giving you some time to re-think what you wrote. During that time,
you can still delete the message and start again.</p>

<div class="section" id="configuration">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#toc-entry-1">Configuration</a></h1>
<p>You need to do nothing. The module is configured appropriately out of the box.</p>
<p>The mail queue processing is made by a cron job. This is normal Odoo behavior,
not specific to this module. However, since you will start using that queue for
every message posted by any user in any thread, this module configures that job
to execute every minute by default.</p>
<p>You can still change that cadence after installing the module (although it is
not recommended). To do so:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Log in with an administrator user.</li>
<li>Activate developer mode.</li>
<li>Go to <em>Settings &gt; Technical &gt; Automation &gt; Scheduled Actions</em>.</li>
<li>Edit the action named “Mail: Email Queue Manager”.</li>
<li>Lower down the frequency in the field <em>Execute Every</em>. Recommended: 1 minute.</li>
</ol>
</div>
<div class="section" id="usage">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#toc-entry-2">Usage</a></h1>
<p>To use this module, you need to:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Go to the form view of any record that has a mail thread. It can be a partner, for example.</li>
<li>Post a message.</li>
</ol>
<p>The mail is now in the outgoing mail queue. It will be there for at least 30
seconds. It will be really sent the next time the “Mail: Email Queue Manager”
cron job is executed.</p>
<p>While the message has not been yet sent:</p>
<ol class="arabic simple">
<li>Hover over the little envelope. You will see a paper airplane icon,
indicating it is still outgoing.</li>
<li>Hover over the message and click on the little trash icon to delete it.
Mails will not be sent.</li>
</ol>
