yup

monthly simply means 'occurring every month' and doesn't even have to
mean 'on a certain date' but it certainly can. so, the subject line
refers to a monthly event and I think virtually any user I've dealt with
would understand that. I've long ago lost what the originally reason for
the question was so I have no idea if I'm being terribly helpful, but
I'm sitting here waiting for a process to finish and had the time to
taradiddle.
