This is currently not supported.
Resolution
- It is not possible to set the delivery time / a delay for the email notifications to trigger:
Emails with custom triggers are sent as soon as the rule IF conditions are met.
Emails with pre-delivered triggers are sent as soon as the task is assigned or completed, depending on the email template scope. - The current system design and behavior: Notifications are triggered based on the activity status.
