Automatically sending email

Hi, gurus. i even not sure the thread's title i gave was actully peoper. here is my question: let's say i have a air ticket booking website. User can choose to let the system hold his booking for two weeks if the desired ticket is not avaiable at the moment. System will automatically send a email to this customer for further options(i.e. offer another two weeks extension) if there are still no tickets avaiable after been holding for two weeks. I thought i could have a backend servlet or thread that runs once a day to check the timestamp(stored in db) of these bookings that people want to be holding for two weeks. My question is how do i make this backend servlet or thread or is there any better way of doing it? any help is deeply appreciated.

Here is what i've got so far, i may have
(new java.util.Timer()).scheduleAtFixedRate(TimerTask, task, long 0, long 24*60*60*1000)which supposed to execute the task repeatly once a day soon as the first time the whole web app is loaded.My question is how am i gonna make the thread, which contains this bit of code, invoked? Can i write some sort of initial parameters into the web.xml file which would accomplish the task? Or what i thought here is complete wrong? any help is greatly appreciated.

Submit by Email Without Automatically Sending Email???

I'm trying to distribute a form that will "submit by email" when the user is finished filling it out. Then when our admin receives the form, have it automatically ask what dataset to add it to.
This works fine, EXCEPT when the user submits the form, it automatically sends the email right away - straight to the Outlook "Outbox" folder. I want it to create the email (with PDF attachment), but wait for the user to hit send. This is so they can attach additional files to the email or add comments to the body of the email.
Right now this doesn't seem possible. I can send it without using the "Distribute Form" option in the menus, but then the popup asking what dataset to add it to doesn't appear.
Any ideas?

Sure thing, Zoe. Thanks for asking. I've set it up a couple of ways, testing them, and they both seem to work the same way. I currently have it set up with a generic button, type "Button", control type "Submit" with "Submit to URL:" set to "mailto:<emailaddress>" and "Submit as" set to PDF in the Submit tab. I've also used a "Email Submit" button for this, with the email address and subject line set appropriately. Both of these methods seem to work the same way. I haven't tried an "HTTP Submit" button method yet, but I would presume it to work the same also. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

Automate Sending Email with Attachment

Hello, I want to know if there is a way to automate sending invoices using Automator considering the following workflow.
Print Invoice from local / network connected windows computer
Scan Printed Invoice on a separate Web-Connected Mac
Place Invoices in folder with the following Hierarchy
Documents Folder
Year
Month / Day
Manually rename Invoices (Invoices with more than one page / more than one TIFF file (1 per page) are named INVOICE# (2))
Reference scanned Invoice for Email address
Manually compose emails and add attachments
Is it possible to use this workflow using automator?
THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP! I do this at least 50 times daily and it's time consuming...

The New Mail Message action will attach files sent to it, so you can use that and a Send Outgoing Messages action in a workflow saved as a folder action plug in. The plug in will send the files added to a folder to your workflow, so all you need to do next is configure folder actions to attach the plug in to your certain folder.

Apple Mail Automatically Sending Emails Before I Hit Send

Hi
I'm having a recurring problem with Apple Mail where emails are being sent by the program before I hit send, so addressee's are receiving half written/finished emails.
I have sync'd 2 x gmail accounts to my Apple Mail, and the same problem happens with each account. Does anyone know what to do to fix this as it's highly annoying!
Thanks

How do I automatically send email messages to Junk

My inbox is loaded with unwanted messages some from dubious sources. I would like to selectively send them to the Junk folder before they appear in my inbox

That is not a Firefox issue.
Some e-mail providers have an option to filter incoming mail. Some also
will send all mail to the junk / spam folder unless the user allows them
to go to the inbox. Check with your e-mail provider.

How to send automatic Birthday email to users in a list.

Hi,
I know this question has been asked multiple times but I'm not able to implement any solution correctly.
I have a list containing users and their birthdays. I created a sharepoint workflow which first checks if value in the field "Birthdays" is equal to today's date and if true then it sends email to the respective user. I ticked all options for starting
workflow (automatic, manually, new, changed). This workflow works when I add a new item(or modify) in the list.
Now, I want this workflow to work even when all users and their birthdays are already created in the list and there is no scope of triggering the workflow through creating new item or changing any item. Anyway birthday workflow is supposed to check the entire
"Birthdays" column match the dates with today's date and if they match then it should send email. I tried to play with information policy settings with no success (I followed this - *not able to post the link*. The workflow just doesn't trigger.
I'm not sure what will be the impact of pause until on the performance of my website. I'll be glad to know any suggestions on how I can make it work?

I dont think your approach will work. This type of repeatative jobs can either be done with some sort of timer service or Scheduling a task.
One way to achieve your desired result is:
1) Create your list of users with their birthday and any required information (It seems you have this)
2) Create a list with some metadata that you will require during sending email. Add one dummy list Item in it.
3) Now create a workflow (you already have this) on this second list.
4) Write a PowerShell script and schedule task it to run everyday which will loop through your Employee Birthday List and if it founds a match it will update that dummy list item with real metadata.
5) Configure your workflow to run automatically when an item is updated.
The only challenge you will have is when two users have their birthday on the same day. What you can do in that case is as soon you update your dummy item you pause your script for 60 seconds or whatever the time it takes to complete your workflow notificiation.

Automatically send pictures from camera to email?

Hello,
Is there any way/hack/trick/app to automatically send new images from my camera?
Ideally, I would take a photo, then the picture would automatically be sent to an email, without an additional click.
Right now, I have to click "send as email" and then start typing my email address. This takes too long, especially when I have to do it for every single photo.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

On the Gmail mobile site, there appears to be no option to attach a file.
However! If you save your email as a draft before sending it, scroll to the bottom of the pane and you should see a link that takes you to the desktop version of Gmail.
Reopen your email and you can attach your file and send it.
Hope that helps!

TS3899 iPhone 5s Mail app shut down automatically when try to send email

I just set up new iPhone 5s two days ago from iPhone 5.
Everything works fine except Mail app.
Due to Mail app, I had to set up new configuation instead of back up from old iPhone 5.
Mail app works fine 1 day, but after the day after, the mail app shut down automatically when try to send email.
Just one specific email account has problem. It worked fine on iPhone 5. Same setting on Pop and SMTP. Exactly same~~
- I did try to reset iPhone 5s pressing home button and sleep button for 10 second. It did not work
- I did try to reset all information and install iPhone 5s and the problem still exists.
- I did try to delete specific email account and re-make it, but it did not work
Funny thing is that if Lanuague is English, then sending email is working. Absolutely no problem.
However, if Language setting is Korean, then Mail App shut down automatically.
I'm heavy email maker and if it is very annoying.
Does anyone have same issue like this?
I believed it is iOS7 bug?
Can anyone help me on this???

Sending emails automatically

does anybody know how to send emails automatically if it meets the requirement, for example, will send emails automatically if an account balance is less than $100? are there any codes to guide me?

Here's some code, just pass in the to, from, subject, and body in the constructor... You'll have to tweak the mail server ip's, etc... You need mail.jar, which is available somewhere on java.sun.com.
I just use it to send email from my appserver, and I'm not using all the capabilities.. You can send attachments, multi-part mime, etc.. This class can easily be modified to do spamming, mailbombs, or newslists.

Hello, gypsyro.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would check to make sure the default account in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars is set to your personal Gmail account. Test send another message after making the change.
