macOS schedule a delivery in mail

[I'm a Mac]

I was wondering if it was possible to schedule a delivery in an email- I download the mail scripts applications, but I wanted to change some things, so I was wondering if there was a basic applescript that lets me schedule an email.

This should do it:

tell application "Mail"
	activate
	set newMessage to (make new outgoing message with properties {subject:"This is the subject", content:"Test content"})
	tell newMessage
		make new to recipient at beginning of to recipients ¬
			with properties {address:"test@address.com"}
	end tell
	send newMessage
	
end tell

Do you mean schedule as in setup a mail to be sent ASAP, or schedule one for later delivery at a specific time/date? Two different things, but if the latter you could maybe script Calendar.app, one of the choices for alarm is to send an email. Or at a lower level, add a cron entry.
