Nadia scheduling email
Hi,
My requirement is to create a custom button 'Schedule an Email' that would collect info about when the user wants to send the email and would send it later at the time scpecified. After doing some reasearch, I am not sure this is at all possible. All I can think of is creating a scheduler with Apex that would run every 5 min to check for emails to be sent. But I have doubts about such solution. Could anyone give me any advice?
thank you

do you think there is any other way to do that, maybe by using workflow? (Is there a way to control workflow via Apex or s-controls?)
I just need to know if my attempts to do that are actually worth trying, or there is just no way to do it, period.
I really appreciate your help, it can save me hours.
thank you
