Re: [afrayer] Sending scheduled email
Hi.

OK Correction to above and Tested Version:

Say you setup 7 Newsletters Monday, Tuesday .... etc saved as templates by that name (one each day) on single say.
Click On Send for each but do not click on Start Mailing link.
Setup each Start Mailing Newsletter Thru cron with following command:

/path/to/links/admin/nph-email.cgi mailing_id

The value of mailing_id would be visible when you place cursor over the Start Mailing Link.

Substitute the mailing_id with the id of the Newsletter for that day. So if Monday starts with mailing_id=21 then your cron entry would be

/path/to/links/admin/nph-email.cgi 21
/path/to/links/admin/nph-email.cgi 22
....
...
so on.

On Sunday, when the Sunday's Newsletter is emailed automatically, you set down tp editing each of the Templates with a fresh content and just click on Send Button again for each of them (and no further)

Edit the mailing_id for each of the cron entries.

Repeat the same for every week on a given day .... In extreme case you could do for the entire Year Wink

Done

Smile
