Hey Mike: I'd assume that the date that they purchased from him is in the database somewhere. If so, then I'd set up a scheduled task to run once a day that sends to those ppl who's purchase is 4 weeks old. I'd also suggest you check with your host to see if they have some kind of web interface set up that emulates the cfschedule tag. A few of the hosts that we deal with disable the cfschedule tag, then offer an interface where you can do the same thing. That's gonna vary from host to host. If they don't disable the cfschedule tag, then you're good to go.
Prolly more ways to do it, but that'd be my suggestion. Ray Mike | NZSolutions Ltd wrote: > Hi there, > > My client wants to send automatically a follow-up email to all > purchasers from his site.
