Forums > Help! > Regular Emails

I'm trying to figure out a way to have emails sent out weekly that remind a friend of mine to turn in a work report... But I don't know how to set emails to be sent at a certain time! I'm only using Gmail right now but if anyone knows how to do it on any type of free email, whatever it'd take to set this up........

Thanks

use NET::SMTP;

use strict;



# ===========================

# Add your info

# -----------------------------------------------

my $mailserver = 'mail.ISPexample.dom'; # add proper outbound mail server, as given by your ISP

my $from = 'exampleFrom@test.test'; # your email address here

my $to = 'exampleTo@test.test'; # the recipient's email address

my $subject = 'Test subject'; # this is what the martians look at



# the body of the message here, everything between the two EOM

my $msg = <


This is a test message.

Place the body of the email here, leaving the last line, EOM, intact.



EOM



# ===========================

# ignore the rest of this, just code crap

# -----------------------------------------------

my $smtp = Net::SMTP->new($mailserver,

Hello => 'mailsend',

Debug => 1,

);



$smtp->mail($from);

$smtp->to($to);

$smtp->data();

$smtp->datasend(

"From: $from\n" .

"To: $to\n" .

"Subject: $subject\n" .

"$msg"

);

$smtp->dataend();



$smtp->quit;
