Is it possible to send item values by mail every week or month

Hi,
Is it possible to send item values by mail every week or month?
For example I would like to send results of calculated items by mail to some users every first day of the month .
Thank you
Patrick

I think you can. You'll have to create an (python/bash/ruby/perl) script to access the Zabbix API and retrieve those values.

But why would you do this? If the items is updated every minute, you'll get an e-mail with 1440 rows (1day) with data? Isn't this something you want to graph with Zabbix?

Hi,
Thank you but I don't really know about writing scripts. I hoped this could be done with some Zabbix parameters (Triggers? Actions?)
What I want to do is to calculate some items every day (and their average for each day). After that I want to calculate the average of these items for a month.
And this could help to compare the results of every months for a year.
