People register for a seminar on my website. I would like to have an email sent to those people every month, reminding them of their registration. I would like this to happen automatically, i.e. without human intervention.
To recap: people register and every month, they get an email. How can I do that? I am using PHP/MySQL.
Thanks!

This is not a task of web application , but rather of some scheduler , e.g.
on Unix it's cron scheduler. You should write this application in any language,
including PHP and register it with scheduler

Vince,
I think you can find something in www.coveryourasp.com at the bottom of the page.
It has something to do with global.asa file.
You can put some flags in there and waith a user to login. If at least a user login into your site, in the login script, you can activate a flag and count number of days since you sent out your last reminder. If days are gone, activate reminder procedure.
Of course if no user login in a day and that day is the day reminder should be sent out, you jump a day.
Specific link is http://www.coveryourasp.com/MemberAdmin.asp
Regards
Eros
