Does anybody know of a piece of software that you can give an URL to,

This could be a stand-alone app on the desktop, or a plug-in to a
browser, or a web site, or some combo. (I guess it could be a
pipeline of curl and some mail program, but i'm afraid i'd just get
piles of incomprehensible text.)
Well you might try:
curl http://www.foo.com | uuencode page.html | mail myn...@mydomain.com
or
( echo "Content-Type: text/html"; curl http://www.foo.com) | sendmail
myn...@mydomain.com
Now, if you want all the components of a page - like embedded images and
such, or an entire site - then you might explore some of curl's options
for downloading a site, pipe that through zip, and email the archive.
Or... most browsers will do this for you!
