What is Email-Reminder?

Email-Reminder allows users to define events for which they want to receive a reminder by email (see sample reminders) either on the day of the event and/or a few days beforehand.

Possible events include:

  • birthdays
  • anniversaries
  • weekly, monthly and yearly events
This program includes a cron job that checks for events and sends reminders once a day, and a simple user interface (see screenshots) to add/modify reminders.

Reminders are either sent to your email account or to certain people directly.

from Google Code (Linux/UNIX source code).

Email-reminder 0.5.7 Released

Email-reminder is not dead! Despite the fact that it hasn't seen much development in the last year, I still use email-reminder every day and care about it :) Here's a small bugfix release which fixes a bug reported by Ron Guerin regarding a missing date header. If the emails sent by email-reminder have weird dates in them, this should take care of them.
