C# Web-App: Automatic Send Email

I am working on a web-based app, and I need to implement a function whereby it checks the dates daily, and send reminder email automatically.

May I know how can I do that? I saw some websites that mentioned about Console Application and Windows Scheduler.
Is that what I need? If so, how can I link to my app?
Otherwise, what are the methods that are available?

I'm new to C# and asp.net, please help.
Thanks.

It's probably easiest to program a windows service that does this for you as you have already suggested.
Do you know how to send an email?
