newsletter via cron job
Hello,

I want cron job from system (SuSE Linux) to send regularly the newsletter of Links SQL 2.1. I 've tried various commands, but nothing did work.

At first I want to delete all completed mailings by cron job.

How do I do this?

Thanks,

Stephan

I'd like to send my newsletter out via cron as well. Would like to send a daily email of new links to registered users. Did a search but couldn't find an answer on how to do this. Can anyone help?

I think what they are asking for is the command to run...i.e perl /path/to/nph-email.cgi --tags --message=test.txt

etc

Am I right? Unsure

You are right indeed. I have no problem setting up cron jobs. I only need to add this one and don't need a full cron manager. I have one of those.

I simply need the command line to point my cron deamon at.
