In a crontab or startup script, use:
wget -O- http://cfaj.freeshell.org/ipaddr.cgi 2>/dev/null | \
mail -s "Current IP address" you@some.where
to get it in the body, or in the Subject: header, just use a variable:
ipaddress=$(wget -O- http://cfaj.freeshell.org/ipaddr.cgi 2>/dev/null)
mail -s $ipaddress you@some.where < /dev/null >/dev/null
