I imagine you should use the --days and --offset options. Once you
have your initial four files, you just need to run --days 1 --offset 3
each day and then send yourself the four most recent files.
(BTW - I make it four messages if you want up to and including the 4th
day. Of course if you want to grab for today + 4 days, ie five days
in total, use --offset 4.)

Yes this is a stupidity with the Lingua::Preferred module that
tv_to_text uses. The latest version of that module fixes it:
<http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Lingua/Lingua-Preferred-0.2.4.tar.gz>.
The next release of xmltv will warn about upgrading to this version.
