Powershell has very good help built in.

Open a fresh Powershell console, and run these commands and read through the output: 

Get-Help Get-ChildItme -Full

This will help you find locate all the .txt files.

Get-Help Select-String -Full

This will help you locate the words "exit x" in those files.

Get-Help Send-MailMessage -full

This will help you send the email.
