Is there a way to create a news message and have it sent at a later
time. I have a need for timing when a message gets sent, and I am not
always available to send it at the required time. I use ActiveState
Perl. The setup of the news account requires standard authentication
and SSL


There was a related discussion last month.

E.g. Steve Cochran suggested using Task Manager (sic).
I'm not sure if that was a typo for Task Scheduler or not. w

Hmm... XP Help and Support Center shows that "Task Scheduler"
isn't really the right term either. See for example:
1. schtasks (for a command line or cmd file approach)
or
4. Common tasks: Scheduled Tasks (for a GUI approach)

(search for
task NEAR schedule*
)
