While everyone is thinking about email
(and while i have a minute to relax after fixing an SMTP server problem
that was causing us headaches for a week)
I've been asked to add a 'delayed send' option to a certain type of
email.  The site sends a few dozen emails a day to its users, but one or
two of them have to be delayed until a future trigger.  The send is
triggered by user action, so it can't be a scheduled task - the most
obvious solution is for the page to construct the email, save its
details to a db table, and set up a scheduled task which checks for
emails which are due to be sent and creates them... but that seems a bit
cumbersome.
I'd love to be able to use cfmail to create an email, but save it to a
file instead of the spool folder, then use cffile to shift it when i'm
ready to send it.  but i think that's optimistic...
Does anyone have any suggestions for building a simple email scheduler?
