cat mbox | ./fundlist.pl
Ultimately, you'll want to use full paths and then a crontab
entry ("man 5 crontab" to read more). Something like:
# Runs at noon time every Wednesday
0 12 * * Wed cat /var/spool/mbox | /path/to/fundlist.pl
The other question is: how is fundlist.pl actually making the webpage? If
it is hardcoded to save it to a file, then you'll want to make sure it's
using a full path for that too. Otherwise, if it spits the webpage to the
screen, you can redirect it via the following:
# Runs at noon time every Wednesday, saves to funds.html
0 12 * * Wed cat /var/spool/mbox | /path/fundlist.pl > /path/funds.html
