Find out the URL of the PNG and set up a cronjob to wget the image at that 
time. That's what I do for archiving. Example for my 23:59 cronjob:

#!/bin/bash -e
MONTH_DIR=`date +'/var/www/archive/%Y/%m'`
mkdir -p $MONTH_DIR

# Fetch PNG and store as today's image
FILE=`date +'/var/www/archive/%Y/%m/%d.png'`
URL="http://myserver/cgi-bin/cricket/mini-graph.cgi?type=png;target=......."
wget -q -O $FILE "$URL"

Shouldn't be too hard to chain a wget call with a sendmail call 
like "mutt -a ...".
