he use of Quarto and YAML for generating emails is powerful. I'd love to see the code used in that YAML setup-wow, there are so many interesting topics here!
Theoretically, yes. Connect is just using crontab behind the scenes to rerender Quarto on a set schedule. So you could do the same thing as long as you have scheduling software. And then to send the email, it uses the blastula package, so that would work as well as long as you have an smtp server.

Any chance this works without Posit Connect? The small college where I work cannot afford that.

Blastula is actually not that easy to use, and is a pain with Gmail, in oppose to Microsoft email. @@Mosk915
