Well I installed the cron job, but I must be doing something wrong. I set it up to run the job every 15 minutes. So, every 15 minutes I was getting a notice about the test auction I had set up. Come to find out, the person helping me with this auction was also getting an email, every 15 minutes.
I know I may be jumping to a conclusion here (which is why I deleted that cron job), but am I reading this right that any user who set up an auction (and maybe has an ad that has closed as well) will get a notice like this for all eternity? If so, I'm going to rename that script from "sendnotices.php" to "solicit_hatemail.php"..........
Even setting it to run only every 24 hours is still going to be a problem if people with closed ads or running auctions gets a notice everytime that cron job runs. So what am I doing wrong or interpretting incorrectly about this process?
