Create a cron-job

Codeigniter, as well many other frameworks have the functionality for email sending. So you need to find a way to call codeigniter method/function with cron.

So, basically you make a cron scheduled task, make the cron to call some method/function in your application which loads the application and does the email sending.

Its quite far from simple if you have not yet used to use cron and some framework so you need to do some reading. Croning in ci is little unknown for me ass well but here are some links to find more information:

http://codeigniter.com/wiki/Category:Adv...ronScript/
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/other/...cron-jobs/
http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...email.html

I think I will learn more about croning in ci
