Thanks itkamaraj for the help! I made little changes to the script where the contents of the output.txt are being to my email address. So far everything works perfectly.
Code:
TODAY=`date "+%Y%m%d"`
export TODAY

SERVERS=$(cat /tmp/hosts.list)
for i in $SERVERS;
do 
uptime=$(ssh $i uptime | cut -f1 -d",")
echo "$i $uptime" >> uptimes_${TODAY}.txt
done

cat uptimes_${TODAY}.txt | mailx -s "Uptimes for `date`" myemail@email.com

I am also trying to think of implementing the following.
If i run the script through crontab on Monday morning, i would like the script to print only the servers who have been up for more than one day, this way only the servers that didnt get rebooted will be mailed to my email address. Any thoughts on how i should be handling? Really appreciate all your help so far.
Cheers!

SIEVESHELL(1)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					     SIEVESHELL(1)

NAME

       sieveshell - remotely manipulate sieve scripts

SYNOPSIS

       sieveshell [--user=user] [--authname=authname] [--realm=realm] [--exec=script] server[:port]

       sieveshell --help

DESCRIPTION

       sieveshell allows users to manipulate their scripts on a remote server.	It works via MANAGESIEVE, a work in progress.

       The following commands are recognized:

	   list list scripts on server.

	   put <filename> upload script to server.

	   get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout

	   delete <name> delete script.

	   activate <name> activate script.

	   deactivate deactivate all scripts.

OPTIONS

       -u user, --user=user
	   The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials.

       -a authname, --authname=authname
	   The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user).

       -r realm, --realm=realm
	   The realm to attempt authentication in.

       -e script, --exec=script
	   Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
