Re: Can i send email through mysql/cakephp when the users are offline?

It sounds like he wants a scheduler to be able to execute some
arbitrary thing (send an email) at a particular time.

As a fellow Cake newbie, I myself have been wondering whether this is
possible. With a web application server like Tomcat, you could just
have an extra thread which runs the scheduler and executes code in new
threads at whatever time. But my guess is that since we're running
Apache for Cake, we don't have that extra kind of capability? Cron
jobs are probably the only way to go about it?
