I think you're going to want to eventually end up using the system's cron. Struggled to figure out the best commands to put in my crontab and ended up with a smal hack: */1 * * * * wget http://localhost/cron/mail_queue >/dev/null 2>&1
That calls the function "mail_queue" in my "cron.py" controller file. I doubt this is the best way to do it but was the only way I could get it working reliably.
