gmail-delay-send - issue #211

Sending immediately instead of specified time

======================================= === PLEASE READ BEFORE FILING ISSUE: https://code.google.com/p/gmail-delay-send/wiki/GmailDelaySendDebugging_8 =======================================

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. I placed an "@8:00am" in the top of my email and began writing the email. This was around 7:30pm and I intended it to be send tomorrow morning at 8am. 2. I labeled it as "To Send" and closed it as a draft. I see it in the "To Send" label and then it suddenly disappears, indicating it has sent. 3. I go back to my inbox to see a receipt for the sent message. The "@8:00am" has disappeared and it shows the original message. I had done this the day before it worked perfectly. I then tried a tester to myself to see what the issue is and every single time it doesn't delay send. It will delay for a few minutes but then it sends it.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I expected it to delay send for the next morning, 8am but instead (about 2-3 minutes later) I see the message has been sent and a receipt that it has been sent is in my inbox.

What version of the product are you using? 8

There is some weirdness when the script is sending to yourself. I might suggest running your test but send to another email address you own.

Also note that datejs does a bad job with relative dates, so might be worth testing your assumptions: https://code.google.com/p/gmail-delay-send/wiki/GmailDelaySendOptions_8#Test_a_date_or_time
