Use the timestamp function to get a Date Record. Create a flag value (boolean in shift register) for storing if email has been sent for this hour. Check the value of the flag and the minutes value in the date record. If minutes are 0 and flag cleared, send email and set the flag. When minutes are any other value, clear the flag.

Be sure to include a wait function with a small value (100ms, for example) to prevent a greedy loop from taking control of your CPU.

Im sorry I didnt know that it was a rule.Not again

You misunderstand what gregory said. He's asking you to post your code where you tried to implement my suggestion. Don't post a picture of your code because it is hard for us to debug and tell where you went wrong. This isn't a "rule", it is a courtesy and matter of convenience for the person who is trying to help you.

Is it fair to assume that once you get the mail sent "on the hour" once, you'll simply have a "Wait 60 minutes = 3600 seconds = 3600000 ms" loop to do the succeeding e-mail? If so, then all you have to do is figure the first "wait" until the next hour, and then all the rest of the "Wait"s are 60 minutes.
But this is a simple calculation, as the LabVIEW Timestamp is a representation of "seconds since 1 Jan 1904 UTC", which you can convert to a Dbl and you'll have seconds. Round this value and take the remainder mod 3600 (seconds/hour), and you have "seconds to wait until the first e-mail is sent", with the reset being sent every 3600 seconds thereafter.

You could check what hour it is and send the email whenever the hour changes from last time you checked.
