## Scheduled delivery
You can delay the delivery of messages and let ntfy send them at a later date. This can be used to send yourself
reminders or even to execute commands at a later date (if your subscriber acts on messages).
Usage is pretty straight forward. You can set the delivery time using the `X-Delay` header (or any of its aliases: `Delay`,
`X-At`, `At`, `X-In` or `In`), either by specifying a Unix timestamp (e.g. `1639194738`), a duration (e.g. `30m`,
`3h`, `2 days`), or a natural language time string (e.g. `10am`, `8:30pm`, `tomorrow, 3pm`, `Tuesday, 7am`,
[and more](https://github.com/olebedev/when)).
As of today, the minimum delay you can set is **10 seconds** and the maximum delay is **3 days**. This can currently
not be configured otherwise ([let me know](https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues) if you'd like to change
these limits).
For the purposes of [message caching](config.md#message-cache), scheduled messages are kept in the cache until 12 hours
after they were delivered (or whatever the server-side cache duration is set to). For instance, if a message is scheduled
to be delivered in 3 days, it'll remain in the cache for 3 days and 12 hours. Also note that naturally,
[turning off server-side caching](#message-caching) is not possible in combination with this feature.

To avoid messages being cached server-side entirely, you can set `X-Cache` header (or its alias: `Cache`) to `no`.
This will make sure that your message is not cached on the server, even if server-side caching is enabled. Messages
are still delivered to connected subscribers, but [`since=`](subscribe/api.md#fetching-cached-messages) and
[`poll=1`](subscribe/api.md#polling) won't return the message anymore.
