Schedule to Timezone
Ross McGill
Please can you add a simple tweak to allow me to schedule my newsletters according to the recipient's time zone.... I've just left MailChimp to try MailPoet and I now think I need to move back to Mailchimp as there are so many basic features not available

This would be an amzing feature, nothing worse than sending emails into timezones during midnight to dawn

I have been using this feature for quite some time; it works well - like I send weekly emails (to double optins) on a friday late evening. Maximum open rates for me and some clients.
If I send emails that ask a question on a Sunday evening - maximum replies because people are more free during that time
Making this possible would help us get better in email marketing, get more open rates, etc

We don't plan to support this, as it would require your subscribers to somehow submit their timezone (or city they are located in), which would make it rather complex and would work for small amount of users (people are hesitant to submit more info than they feel necessary).
Moreover, many people take emails as asynchronous communication tool, so sending the email "at the right time" would be missing the asynchronous point of it.

Ján Mikláš: No, it doesn't require users to set their timezone. This can easily be adjusted per user, per website visit based on IP. Remember, most of the world is not required to follow GDPR - and those really two completely separate things.
