Database triggered auto-email?

[Clark]

My site is FP2000 - generated, operates in a Windows environment, uses Access
for the database, and has several DRW-generated queries in operation.

The database records all contain email addresses and a timestamp indicating when
the record was added among other things.

What I hope to do: I would like to automatically email all the email addresses
in the database whose timestamp is 90 days old. I know how to make an Access
query that produces the emails.

I have two questions:

1. What tools would be required to pull this off?
2. Will I need special things running / available at my host?
3. Can someone point me to code examples and/or useful reading to bone up on
this?

Thanks

You just need to write the emailing functions that loops thru the recordset and then sends the email
via CDOSYS or CDONTS. Just do a search in the IE address bar as:

? ASP Sending Email CDOSYS

or

? ASP Sending Email CDONTS
