A PHP system to send an email at a specific time?

Hey,

I need a PHP system to send an e-mail to someone at a specific time (I cba to leave my computer on overnight for Outlook or something).

Could anyone help me out?

Thanks

Reckon the best way to do it would be to have a normal PHP email script and then just have a cronjob that runs that file at specific times?

email services have a thing were you can send a email at the time you choose?

i know hotmail do, dunno bout others..

im a newb at php... buttt could you not do

like

if time is bla bla then mail (); ?:D

THAT sir is a good idea.

Johno!'s post would be the best way. An hour seems like a good time to run the script aswell.

I don't see why you don't use hotmails send any time function........ indtead of making your own thing

Probably because he wants to use it from his own email address and not be restricted to Hotmail's UI.

Too suspicious considering the person has my hotmail address (WLM), I've got to catch this person out to win :P
