Hi Guys

This is due to parking restrictions at work, need to send a mail every day at 06:50:01 and this will enable me to get a space or pay £10 per day for parking (Don't ask!!!)

Is there any way to do this as I'm having a nightmare getting the email out bang on time every day

I'm running Outlook 2010 on O365

Thanks in advance ;)

Just an idea - what about a recurring event in your work calendar which sends an email reminder to specified addresses? If you can't specify that particular address that you need to contact using your calendar, what about creating a forwarding rule for certain types of email to that address?

The Outlook forwarding rules are a PITA (at least in my experience) but you may have more luck with those than the above linked-to instructions, though do note that all those instructions I linked to previously will remind you to send the email and write the email for you - it won't be sent automatically (presumably unless you deal with Rules).

Easily done from the command line/cron. :)

Or just use windows and task scheduler.

Code:
send-mailmessage -from "User01 <[email protected]>" -to "User02 <[email protected]>", "User03 <[email protected]>" -subject "Sending the Attachment" -body "Forgot to send the attachment. Sending now." -Attachments "data.csv" -priority High -dno onSuccess, onFailure -smtpServer smtp.fabrikam.com
