I've long felt our use of 'at' in scheduler was wrong, but we've not had a reasonable alternative. We now have BackgroundJobs and I could see us using that system as an alternative to using 'at' and calling a script.

I agree about using BackgroundJobs for the execution.

We'll still need a scheduler, and I think the shortest path forward is a cronjob-based scheduler script, which polls the database every X interval looking for jobs to run.

If we do this, could we make it work for scheduled repeated sending? I am thinking of something like daily, on a specific day of the week, first of the month, etc. and also a time for each of those. A specific time might not work I guess or at least not exactly. Maybe something like "after 8:00" and then the first cron run after that time would run it and set a 'last run on' date? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
