Usage notes
- For postponing events, rimandare is more common than posporre; rinviare is a close synonym, often slightly more formal or bureaucratic.
- Use rimandare a + time/date: La riunione è rimandata a domani. Not per for the new date.
- With the 'send back' meaning, it usually takes avere: Ho rimandato il pacco al mittente.
