I found System Scheduler
(https://www.splinterware.com/products/scheduler.html) easy to use (and
it works on 7 too, so I don't have to do battle with 7's built-in). I'm
sure there are others though.

I
tried several times but was told that what I was trying to do was not
permitted (in free version?).

What is it that you _are_ trying to do - something unusual?

I looked at Gmail but it doesn't offer email
delivery at a specific time and date. I searched XP as best I could but
couldn't find anything.

Sending an email at a specific time is rather specialised. Does the
reminder need to be an email?

Any suggestions? This sounds like a useful feature that should be popular.

TIA
