Hi All,
I need to send mail automatically to some users after a couple of hours after composing.
Basically i wanna schedule the sending of email .
can this be done in SM and if so how,
Could conceivably be done, but it is really outside the scope of webmail. Webmail is transient. It connects to the IMAP server when you are actually using it, not hours later. IMAP itself has no protocol for delayed sending. The only way to "fake" it with SquirrelMail would be to store sent mail in a temporary location on your server and have a cron job that picks messages up and sends them later, but this requires system-specific non-PHP scripting, the need to spoof you as a user to the SMTP/sendmail server, and introduces a *lot* of error potential.
