Automatic Daily Personalized E-mails

I have a PHP website and am trying to figure out a way to send
automatic daily personalized e-mails. I have been able to set up a php
page on the site that automatically checks through the database and
sends out the personalized e-mails, but the problem with this method
is that in order to send the messages, I have to access the PHP page.
I would rather the messages be sent out automatically, on a daily
basis.

My site is hosted on a Yahoo! server which I imagine may cause some
problems, though I am not sure. Anyone have experience with automatic
e-mail sending, initiated on the server perhaps by a third-party
program or custom code?

Thanks.
