When composing a message you can enable the "Send Later" pseudo-header 
(far-left pulldown in the toolbar between headers and body in the 
compose window) and enter a somewhat free-form time description like 
"Friday at 10 AM" or anything else the Apple time/date "data detector" 
gadgetry recognizes. See the Compose page of the MailMate Help.
