Description

The Message Queue plugin has been developed by Kevin Jardine originally. It's a utility plugin that supplies message queuing services to other plugins. This enables emails to be sent via cron jobs, i.e. sending them at a defined later time. For example the Event Calendar plugin makes use of the Message Queue plugin for (optionally) sending of reminders messages shortly before the event is to start., _(*2)

For the Message Queue plugin to work you need to have the Elgg fiveminute cronjob correctly configured., _(*3)
