Oozie Email Action supports attachments of HDFS files. Because standard output files are written as local files, you need to copy them to HDFS first, then specify the path in the <attachment> tag of the email action.

<workflow-app name="[WF-DEF-NAME]" xmlns="uri:oozie:workflow:0.1">
...
<action name="[NODE-NAME]">
<email xmlns="uri:oozie:email-action:0.2">
<to>[COMMA-SEPARATED-TO-ADDRESSES]</to>
<cc>[COMMA-SEPARATED-CC-ADDRESSES]</cc> 
<subject>[SUBJECT]</subject>
<body>[BODY]</body>
<content_type>[CONTENT-TYPE]</content_type> 
<attachment>[COMMA-SEPARATED-HDFS-FILE-PATHS]</attachment> 
</email>
<ok to="[NODE-NAME]"/>
<error to="[NODE-NAME]"/>
</action>
...
</workflow-app>
