Installation - Schedule Dailymail - Windows / no Cron




Set up your own cron task - Install "wget" for Windows
If you have a dedicated internet connection you can run the scheduled task from your home or work computer. Similar to linux, we use the "wget" command-line web page grabbing tool, available for Windows from:

ftp://ftp.sunsite.dk/projects/wget/windows/wget-1.9.1b-complete.zip

Extract the files to a temporary folder and copy or move WGET.EXE to your main windows directory. C:\Windows or C:\WINNT are common.

A few additional libraries from the ZIP are required. Copy or move the files libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll to your C:\Windows\System32 (or C:\WINNT\System32) directory.

Wget will now be installed and operational.

To verify, go to Start -> Run and type "cmd" . Next, type "wget" at the prompt. It should say "wget: missing URL". This is good and indicates that the program is installed and working.

Set up a Windows scheduled task
Next, set up a scheduled task in your Windows Control Panel.

Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Scheduled Tasks -> Add Scheduled Task

Click "Next", then "Browse". Type in the full path to wget, like "c:\winnt\wget.exe". If you wish, type a descriptive name, like "Dailymail". Choose "Daily" for the frequency and hit "Next". Choose the time you want to run dailymail and click "Next". Enter your username and password for the task and hit "Next". Check the box "Open advanced properties when I click finish". Click "Finish". In the line that says "Run", modify the command.

Where it originally said "c:\winnt\wget.exe", enter:

c:\winnt\wget.exe -T 0 -q -O c:\mycron.txt http://example.com/mail/dailymail.php?pw=YourDailyPass

Replace "example.com/mail" with your domain and correct path to ListMail. Replace "YourDailyPass" with your Dailymail Password, set in ListMail's Configuration menu.

That's it! You are now running your own cron event.
