A lightweight alternate to this would be a script that emails you via mutt or another command-line email program in cron every day with the reply-to set to your bosses address:
mutt -s 'Daily status.' -e 'my_hdr Reply-To: bosses-address' your-address
Though some problems with this approach are:
1. Your emails would be prefixed with 'Re:'
2. Configuring mutt or other command-line email programs require some setup.
3. Your computer needs to be running when the cron job is set to execute.
