Hi Rakesh,

If you want send email everyday at 4 pm you need to schedule the class to run. You can schedule your class through User Interface as well as through excuteAnoumous window from develop er console.

If you want to schedule it from user interface then follow the link below.

http://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/3593/scheduling-an-apex-job-through-the-ui

Scheduling through developer console.

Use below code in your apex class.
 
global class scheduledEmail implements Schedulable {

   global void execute(SchedulableContext SC) {
   
      sendmail();
      
   }
   public void sendmail()
       {
           Messaging.SingleEmailMessage email = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessage();
           string [] toaddress= New string[]{'sircilla.rakesh7@gmail.com'};
           email.setSubject('Testing Apex Scheduler-Subject');
           email.setPlainTextBody('Testing Apex Scheduler-Body');
           email.setToAddresses(toaddress);
           Messaging.sendEmail(New Messaging.SingleEmailMessage[]{email});
       }
}

Go to developer console > Excute Anoumous.


Excute the below code it runs every day 4pm.
 
System.schedule('scheduledEmail', '0 0 16 * * ?', new scheduledEmail());

Let me know if does not work for you.
