I am using Outlook 2010. Is there a way that it can be set-up to autmatically generate an email at a specific time ?

Thanks in advance.

The short answer is yes. There are multiple ways to do it.

1. Use Outlook's 'send later' command. Probably too crude, but worth
mentioning.

2. Use an Outlook 'add-in' module. A couple are mentioned here:

one of which takes you here

Unfortunately, it doesn't look to be free, but you didn't say it had
to be.

3. Write your own script and stick it in Scheduled Events. This option
might be the most difficult of the three options, but probably the
most flexible.

4. Write a small Visual Basic program. Same caveats as #3, above.

Those are just a few options that come to mind.
