Several possibilities.  What have you tried so far?

forgot to specify that plugs into a php function and should work only 
when  this function is called;
so if the function is not used must not do anything;
if the function is called is need to verify the scheduled dates

I don't think you will get many, if any replies this way ...

#1: You're not replying to Jerry's question (rather rude).

#2: You do not seem to have thought thru what you actually need before
asking your question.

If you have not tried anything yourself yet I would suggest you start with
doing so (and ofcourse post it).   Although a lot of people here are very
willing to *help* you, there are not many here that will just do some
unpayed "just gimme the code" work for you.

So, get off your lazy ass and put some effort in it.  Who knows, you might
even discover its a lot easier than you currently think, and *learn* from
it. :-)

Regards,
Rudy Wieser

The munged "address" was the showstopper for me already.  (As it is going to 
be in your case from now on.  I do not think that your provider is allowing 
you to violate Internet standards.  If you value your account, you should 
adhere to their Acceptable Use Policy.)

Had that been fixed, I would have been slow to reply because of the missing 
real name and posting via the troll server, aioe.org.

The question that reads like a homework assignment with no visible effort 
whatsoever by the person asking would have finally prevented me from 
replying, except perhaps

Thomas,

Although the line at the top names me, lower down the contents seem to be
directed at the OP.   Due to no indication which part is ment for whom the
result is ... rather messy.


But apart from that, if you have problems about how the OP -- or I for that
matter -- try to defend himself from his -- my --  email account being
innundated with spam is not something you have any say over.

If you think that the OP -- or I -- are doing something that should not be /
is not allowed you are always free to write your complaint to his -- or
my -- ISP, using the email address provided by the by you probably
well-known "X-Complaints-To" header in the message.    As far as I'm
concerned, have a go it it.  They could use a laugh.

And by the way: AFAIK every newsgroup server can drop whatever message they
do not want to carry, for whatever reason.   The fact that the OPs, mine,
and other people (even in this newsgroup) can post with "mungled" (or
rather: *obviously* incorrect) email adresses should signal to you that your
"must be valid, must be given" stance is not actually universially carried.

As for "your ISP does not allow", the fact that the OP, I, and other people
post their newsgroup messages *thru their ISPs servers* (meaning checking
and rejecting, if they would want to, is rather possible) with "mungled"
email adresses should tell you otherwise.

Heck, even the fact that the newsgroup server you take your own news from
does not make any attempt to filter them out should tell you something.

> The question that reads like a homework assignment with no

You're a day late and a dollar short I'm afraid.   Both Jerry and I have
already mentioned pretty-much the same


Bottom line: You're rather acerbic, carrying a lot of "demands" that are
obviously not even carried by the institutions you refer to -- in this case
ISPs and/or the owners of the newsgroup servers -- to give your demands
volume (in other words: you're spewing FUD).

Also, rejecting aioe.org as troll server is a "not a real irishman" falacy.
Especially so when a simple check in this very newsgroup could have you
shown that there are others allow the very same.   (warning: if you just
classify all of those a "troll servers" you might run outof any usable
server pretty soon -- see above remark about the newsgroup server you're
using yourself :-) )

Regards,
Rudy Wieser

Rudy, haven't you realized? "Pointed Head" controls the internet, and
anyone who doesn't act according to *his* standards is not allowed on it.

He's tried to complain about me to external-september, with the expected
result (they laughed at him) because he can't even read their TOS properly.

And if you look back, when he does answer a question, it's several days
later, and always a slightly modified copy of something which already
had been posted.

Tried crontab?
check the man page for further information how to configure jobs in
crontab and run those as a different user.
