sendmail alert msg- How to

Sorry for such a simple question, but being new cannot find any info..

I am trying to ftp a file and checking if the ftp was successful or not. Either way I want to send an e-mail to myself to left me know if good ftp or ftp was not sent. I have the code in the program to do this and am going to have the program run in a crontab at night. Next morning, with the e-mail can tell if the ftp was good or bad. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance...

Ron
Oh... this is on a linux box..
