How to email a file list
I would like to configure a cronjob to email me a list of files older than 30 days. I'm able to use the find command to ls the files, but not sure how to make it email the file list to me.

Could someone help me get started with this?

I don't wish to send a file attachment. I just want to send an email containing the listing of some folders to see the filenames & timestamp.

Managed to get it done. Here's what I did:

Code:
find /path/to -type f -ctime +1 -name "*.log" -print | mailx -s "Log files Listing" "feedback@acme.com"
