Question Search for multiple strings and mail accordingly

Hi,
I need to find if there is any error in the last few lines of the log file and send a mail accordingly.For example,
Following errors can be logged in the log file.
ERR_1="DB Connection not established"
ERR_2="Server Unloading"
I need to find if these errors are found in the log file and send different mails according to the errors.
How can we do that?
