myTimer.Interval = 86400000;

I suggest an alternate solution.Try this and let me know.
Create your own class like this.

public class TimerStarter
{
    private static Timer threadingTimer;
    public static void StartTimer()
    {

        if (null == threadingTimer)
        {
            threadingTimer = new Timer(new TimerCallback(DoActions), HttpContext.Current, 0, 8640000);
        }
    }
    private static void DoActions(object sender)
    {
        // all your mail calling methods here
    }
}

Then in application_start method in global.asax file.

void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
         TimerStarter.StartTimer();
    }

Let me know if you get any prob

Hi Santhosh Kumar Jayaraman,
Your code is not working correctly. Mean to say doesn't give expected result. I'd set timer interval at one hour. But timer doesn't run exact at one hour. Pls help me. I am uploading the result as jpg file.

void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

// Code that runs on application startup
System.Timers.Timer myTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
// Set the Interval to 5 seconds (5000 milliseconds).
myTimer.Interval = 86400000;
myTimer.AutoReset = true;
myTimer.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(myTimer_Elapsed);
myTimer.Enabled = true;
}
public void myTimer_Elapsed(object source, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
// use your mailer code
ScheduleMail objScheduleMail = new ScheduleMail();
objScheduleMail.SendSurveyMailDaily();
objScheduleMail.SendSurveyMailWeekly();
objScheduleMail.SendSurveyMailMonthly();
objScheduleMail.SendCampaignMailDaily();
objScheduleMail.SendCampaignMailWeekly();
objScheduleMail.SendCampaignMailMonthly();
objScheduleMail.SendTemplatMailDaily();
objScheduleMail.SendTemplateMailsMonthly();
objScheduleMail.SendTemplateMailsWeekly();
objScheduleMail.EmailRemainders();
}
this is the code i should invoke those methods
