If you write a new message, add a header like:
X-TDSendMail: YYYY-MM-DD HH-MM
and the after writing the message postpone it.
Now you need a (BaSH) script which is executed each minute from
cron and whatching the ~/Maildir/.POSTPONE/new/ directory...
The script grep for the above mailheader and if the time is reached
it sends the message via
cat <message> |/usr/sbin/sendmail -t
Additionaly you can move the message to the folder ~/Maildir/.SENT/cur/
while renaming the file with
mv ~/Maildir/.POSTPONE/new/<msg> ~/Maildir/.SENT/cur/<msg>:2,S
