E-mail Scheduler script or software
Hi
I am looking for a tool which will enable me to send out pre-written e-mails at scheduled times to a specified address - maybe one every 30 minutes?
Anybody got any suggestions - preferably nothing too complicated!
Thanks
Stephen.

This sounds like spam is it?
if not what is it for?

No it's not for spam - it's for prompting a response from an online database. I only want to send one e-mail at a time at specific intervals.
Thanks.

Hi,
these are e-mails to Nominet to check for availability of domain names which are possibly becoming available to register. All that is required is a simple way to schedule pre-composed e-mails.
Thanks.
Stephen.

Again, what database and language are you using, what server OS? There are valid questions to narrow down suggestions for you.
For something that simple, it would just be easier to write your own script. If you are using a linux/bsd box, you would initiate a cron job to run the script every 15 minutes. On Windows, I know there is something similar, but not sure what it is.

Tesk scheduler could do it, just set it to go to a php script 15 minutes, or run a DOS command.
