Call me ghetto (or lazy) but I've always just used atd since its
pre-installed on all kinds of things and I don't want to worry about my
internet connection, email client or desktop being ready to do what I
need it to do. So I just hop on something thats always on and issue
whatever command I need it to do.
Example:
me@bleh:~$ at 2:00 next week
at> echo "How are you?" | mail -s "OHAI!" somebody@somewhere.com
at> <EOT>
job 6 at Thu Jul 16 02:00:00 2009
(thats ctrl+d which does the "End of Text" <EOT>)
To get one of them fancy emails all the cool kids do you could make
something nice and:
mail -s "subject"
somebody@somewhere.com < /tmp/skateboards.txt
