Email-reminder allows users to define events that they want to be reminded of by email. Possible events include birthdays, anniversaries, and yearly events. Reminders can be sent on the day of the event and a few days beforehand. It uses a cron job to checks for events and send reminders once a day, and a simple GUI that allows users to edit the reminders they want to receive. License: GNU General Public License v3 Changes:
This version adds a (somewhat important) warning message when the configuration file (/etc/email-reminder.conf) cannot be read. Some people reported problems with their settings being ignored, and the cause of that problem was that the user running send-reminders didn't have read permissions on the config file.
