Will the scheduled email show up in my sent box once it has gone out? I followed along with your steps and it all went pretty well. My screen prompts were a little different but was able to find where I was suppose to be. So far the instructions are ok, but all that happens with me is that the mail is displayed in the automator. I can then send it, but that is not the point. When it navigated to Applications folder it was empty. The app folder on my dock is not empty.

If you have multiple email accounts associated with the Mail app, you can also select which account you want to send the message from. Head back to the list of Mail actions in the middle panel and find the option titled Send Outgoing Messages. Again, you need to drag and drop it into the main window. Make sure it goes below the New Mail Message action that you just set up.
Make sure the File Format dropdown menu is set to Application before you hit the Save button. Create a new event on the date by Control-clicking and selecting New Event. In the window that appears, set the Starts field to the time you want your email to be sent. Set the Message with sound dropdown to Open file. The Calendar dropdown will appear. Click on it and select Other. It lets you create workflows and scripts and automatically perform repetitive tasks, including message scheduling in Apple Mail.
The Calendar event will run the automation at the desired time and send the email. Ensure your Mac is on and connected to the internet at the time, or the event will be missed.
To continue scheduling emails with Automator, create a new workflow, or make changes to a saved one and add it to a Calendar Event. While this is a handy tool, there are quite a few steps involved in the mix. Plus, it does not support attachments. You might want to try a simpler method using a third-party app like Spark.
Download the Spark app on your Mac and log in to your email account. While Apple is excelling at many things, the iOS app is not quite there yet. It lacks some basic cool features, including scheduling an email.
