Title: Dailymail Cron Task
Post by: on July 08, 2004, 07:02:33 am

I requested assistance from my ISP (iPowerWeb) for setting up the dailymail cron task as suggested in your instructions on the ListMail Web site. In fact, I copied and sent the instructions along with my request.

Their reply was:

"If you need to set up a crontab please respond to this email with the exact crontab and location it needs to be in along with the last 4 digits of the credit card used to purchase this account(for verification) and we should be able to create it for you."


How do I tell them "the exact crontab and location it needs to be in" ? :roll:

Thanks!

Earl

You should send them the command from the ListMail help, http://www.listmailpro.com/help/10.html

ie:

Code: [Select]
