I never did but if sendmail is configured on your server then you can send mail using following line:
Code: [Select]
/usr/sbin/sendmail address@example.com < path/to/access.log
Can do same for other files. Alternatively there is a command line email client

To run the above command at periodic time, you can use cron job.
Here is a link which will explain use of cron :
