schedule email sending after specified time

-WAITBEFORE switch causes Command Line Email utility to delay specified number of seconds before sending email messages.

-WAITAFTER switch in the similar manner causes Command line email software to delay specified amount of time (in seconds) after sending email messages.

Command syntax:
  • febootimail -WAITBEFORE 5
  • febootimail -WAITAFTER 60

One another possible application for these commands is to configure batch file email sending to send log files or IP address in text file after regularly after specified delay (e.g. sending log file each 2 hours). Another one might be in situation when user is leaving his computer and runs Command Line Email with -WAITBEFORE switch thus knowing when exactly dos email will be sent to recipient.

Minimize
C:\>febootimail -SERVER smtp.server.com -FROM john@sender.com -TO jack@recipient.com -TEXT sending automated email after 15 minutes -WAITBEFORE 900 

In some cases it might be useful in order not to overload SMTP server with persistently repeating data packages, especially because some SMTP servers are configured to temporary block address for too frequent and intense server accessing.
