You know, you can run anything at all on the firewall machine and use 
iptables to block access to those services from all IP addresses but your own 
using iptables, sort of like this:

iptables -t filter -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -d 192.168.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t filter -A INPUT -s 0/0 -d 0/0 -j DENY
(or DROP)

1. Mount the other machine with NFS.  Tell cron to send the output of its job to 
">>/mnt/nfs/var/spool/mail/yourmailbox"

2. Write a HTTP CGI that appends whatever data it gets to your mailbox.  Use a 
cron job on the other system to call the CGI.

There are lots of other ways as well, maybe these will get you started.
