NAME

       Send-reminders - send email reminders for special occasions

SYNOPSIS

       Send emails reminders set by users for special occasions.

DESCRIPTION

       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.

       This script is meant to be invoked everyday by a cron job.  It mails the actual reminders out.

       user.
