That'll work. I didnt know how to do email from the shell. Is there any way
to limit the size of an email? Such as when the logfile gets so big then it
will email that then when it gets that big again it will email that and so
on?

you can cron the job to run similar to the following:
$ crontab -e
0 0 * * * mail -s 'log files' [EMAIL PROTECTED] <
/path/to/log/files
then save your crontab
