I think the OP meant snooze applied to incoming messages. At least in
the case of Gmail, that's what it does. The mail is effectively
deferred until a later time, and then shows up in the Inbox. It's still
visible of course, so the deferment is a scheduled activity that just
changes its status. As you say, there's no standard way of doing this
and I can see it being a mess to implement in a robust way.

But isn't that what Tasks are for? On receiving the mail, use it to
create a Task. That seems to cover the use case as far as I can see.
Maybe there's a case for creating a quick way to do this and calling it
Snooze.
