I'm looking for a way to have my server generate and send an email
every five minutes. Is this possible in Windows 2003 Server Std?

Yes, it is.










In case you also wanted to know ***how*** it's done, have
a look at blat.exe. You can download it from a number of sites.

Hrm... the Windows scheduler will only run daily. Same with the AT
command. Guess I should look for CRON for Windows, eh?

*** Your question was "Is this possible in Windows 2003 Server Std?"
*** The answer is obviously "Yes". In a post it pays to ask precise
*** questions in order to get the best possible answers.

*** What makes you think this? You can make the Task Scheduler
*** repeat its tasks as often as you want to. Have a look at the
*** "Advanced" options - there is lots of stuff there you may have
*** missed completely!

Doh! I have no idea how I could have missed that. It couldn't have been
more obvious.

Thanks again!!!
