Try putting the code from your console app into a windows service (with approriate code for scheduling the action to be taken, of course), and turn off the scheduler altogether. That shouldn't take you more than an hour or two.

Your best bet to do this is to run a service on your server computer, I believe. ASP.NET generates pages on demand, it has no code running to check or run a timer.

If the control was writting for webforms, I doubt it will be compatible, it probably won't work, and MVC sure won't catch the events it tries to fire.If it was written for MVC, then you should read the documentation.You CAN do 'classic' ASP.NET pages inside an MVC project if you need to.

First, using a Timer is not really a good idea. It binds all the email sending code to your site being up and running. Also, it doesn't scale across servers. You'll have more than one server running the email check at different times. That's not the job of your web server.It's POSSIBLE to...
