I apologize, it should be with a system command and there was a typo in the code, try this if you don't have temperature of 80 or above:
Code:
wget -q http://server/temp -O - |
awk -F"|" '{
  for(i=2;i<=NF;i+=2){
    if($i >= 75){
      system("echo \"" $0 "\"| mail -s \042Temp Update\042 moe@ocd.com") 
      exit
    }
  }
}'
