Ned to send command output to email

I need to run the following command as a cron job that will email me every day:

for ip in `awk '/Invalid user/ {print $10}' /var/log/secure |sort -u`; do echo "$ip : "`grep -c $ip /var/log/secure`; done

Can somebody tell me a simple way to add that to a shell script?

This assumes that you have outbound email set up on your machine.

Oh that's it? Thanks it's working!
