I need to send out an email reminder via cron to a club I'm a member of. I need the reminder to go out on the Friday morning before the second Monday of every month. I'm a newbie to cron, and would appreciate it if someone would provide me with a crontab line to accomplish this task. Here's what I have so far:

30 11 * * * echo "Just a reminder that the KCARC meeting will be this Monday at 7pm, at the Abilene Public Library, 2nd floor. See you there!" | mail -s "Reminder: Club Meeting" [EMAIL PROTECTED]


How about
<min> <hour> 5-11 * 5 echo "Just a reminder that the KCARC meeting will be this" `date -d 'now + 2 days' '+%A, %d %B'` "at 7pm, at the Abilene Public Library, 2nd floor. See you there!" | mail -s "Reminder: Club Meeting" [EMAIL PROTECTED]

*Nix is so awesome, and so is this list . . . Travis particularly at the moment in my mind :-).


Thanks!
