Yep,<br />
<br />
That should be doable. You should use a kind of Timer to do that. I think that Quartz should help you doing that.<br />

Is this web application or Desktop Application (J2SE)? As far as I know, there is a Timer class in Java itself but I never used it.<br />
<br />
I still prefer Quartz. Do you have any constraint(s) to use 3rd party lib?<br />

was wondering how hard it would be, or even possible in java to automate emails at a specific time. <br />
<br />
Mail client A at x time on y date<br />
<br />
Mail client b at x time on y date<br />
<br />
<br />
etc...

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
