Also you can make that table as generic as possible, and use it for every project on the server. It's just a list of emails and what to do with them, after all. If you want I have code for driving that (but -get ready- in Windows Scripting Host VBScript!). > btw. would also the solution where i "manually" (in the web-app) spawn > the process, and not by cron also work? > > basically i would like to start sending them out immediately (yes, i > understand that i could set up the cronjob to run every minute...). I'd basically cheat =) That is, have a webpage handling the 'starting' of the processes, that actually doesn't do much -- and have a real cron running every minute. It'd give your user a sense of control, but honestly, it'd be just smoke and mirrors.
