Timed sending of pre-scripted content

[Matt]

Any recommendations for solutions that will send pre-scripted content at regularly timed intervals (based on time elapsed from signup)? E.g.:

Day 1: Bob signs up. Bob receives e-mail #1
Day 2: Jane signs up. Jane received e-mail #1. Bob receives e-mail #2.
Day 3: Tom signs up. Tom receives e-mail #1. Jane receives e-mail #2. Bob receives e-mail #3.

The idea is to gradually walk someone through a process by e-mail and blasting the same message out to everyone doesn't work.

I would think you'll want a database field that tracks when the user signed up and then a daily cronjob that queries/calculates days since signup for each user and sends the appropriate info.

Dan, thanks for the reply. I really wanted the tracking capability of a good mailing list tool + simplicity of a SaaS solution and ended up going with AWeber.
