Hi,

You would need to make a script in a programming language such as Python, Perl, or PHP, that would process these results and send them via an email. You can then add this script as a cronjob.

To send the results of the cronjob via email, you just need to include the following line at the top of your crontab: MAILTO=email@example.org
