It does if you configure your MUA to only download it 3 times a day.

I don't know of a setting to delay outgoing mail.

[creshal → ape4]

Postfix can do it (set default transport to hold, flush the built up queue via cron and `mailq -q`), I'm sure other MTAs can do it too.

OK, but thats not in the client (which is what I meant)

[creshal → ape4]

No, it's just in the program your client connects to.

But why would you want to do that? If you want to limit your notifications then you're free to do that, but doing it to your outgoing mail wouldn't help them (they still get almost as much mail anyway) and would just make it take longer for you to get a reply.
