hi,
u can schedule a java program to send mail just u have to add the job to
crontab (in unix) or using at (in NT).
i couldnt understand why u r particular on using servlet for this purpose.
i have made a same thing like this, in which my java program checks for
connectvity and send the status as mail for every hour. for this i have used
cron in unix environment. (the cron will automatically send the program
output as mail, for more info refer cron documentation)

Subject: Automatic Servlet Execution?
Hi Friends,
I want a servlet to be executed automatically everyday
(same time) to check in the database and send mails to
some people.
Is it possible to run the servlet like mentioned
above? If yes, How?
Can you please send with details immediately.
Thanks in advance.
Poornima Visvesvaran.
