Computer Question for the Mac users

[Jay Jolliffe]

I tried Mac forum with no answer so I'll try here. Is there a way to automatically send an e-mail on a certain day to someone ?

[John Coloccia]

The simple answer is you can use "Automator" to do this. For example, you can setup an even in the calender, and have that event run a script that sends the e-mail. That's just one way. I don't really do anything with Automator so I can't give specifics, but I've played around with it a bit. There's probably simpler ways but this is pretty simple.

Depending on your email client you can set the day and time you want an email sent. I use Outlook on the MAC but I think most clients can do this. What you do is create the message and before you send it go to "Tags" and set "Do not deliver before" to the time you want the message sent.

I think you can set up an "event" in iCal to do it. I only played with this feature one time, and don't remember the details.
