.josh Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Store the date for when you want to send it in a table or flatfile. Write a script that queries the db or searches the flatfile for current date(s), and mails relevant stuff based on that. Setup a cronjob to run the script every x amount of time.
