If the web page is not directly on disk, f.e. it's dynamically generated
by webserver, you could use something similar:
wget http://web.server.com/somedir/somefile.html
mutt -s "daily data" -a somefile.html [EMAIL PROTECTED] <~/boilerplate_text
... and automate it through user crontab (see "man crontab")
