Hammer & Screwdriver Need more info, but some general thoughts...

You will need to have a cron job running to continually check if file(s) have been modified. Perhaps some kind of ls -l | grep "Jun 12" to find today.

Code:
ls -l | grep "Jun 12" >temp_file
mailx -s "modified files" someone@anywhere.com <temp_file

You really did not provide that many details.

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
