yeh apologies... I know its a bit of an open ended question.
I was just looking for step in the right direction
What i am aiming to do is build a domain name checker which basically tells me when my domain names are up for renewal,
so far i have all the names with there renewal date in a table on the database. I can call the date with a mysql select command and it shows the domains 30 days in advance of there renewal. But now i would like the system to send an email automatically on this day.
regards
Alex

Okay, so you'll want a cron running (or similar) that calls your check script daily, then you'll need to emailing interface. You could roll your own, or use an existing library such as Swift, which is written by one of our own moderators.
