export FROM_ADDR="Sakthifire"
export TO_ADDR="emailid@mail.com"
CUR_DIR=/home/mail

send_mail()
{
for addr in $TO_ADDR
do
echo "From: $FROM_ADDR" > $CUR_DIR/mail.txt
echo "To: $TO_ADDR" >> $CUR_DIR/mail.txt
echo "Subject: Sending email">> $CUR_DIR/mail.txt
# here you can implement your logic to check the size of the folder
# redirect it to a mail.txt
echo "" >> $CUR_DIR/espmail.txt
echo "This is a automated email.Please don't reply to it ." >>$CUR_DIR/mail.txt

Note : Please change the CUR_DIR , FROM_ADDR & TO_ADDR as per your need . You can have multiple sender email ids seperated by a space in TO_ADDR .

calibre-smtp

CALIBRE-SMTP(1) 						      calibre							   CALIBRE-SMTP(1)

NAME

       calibre-smtp - part of calibre

SYNOPSIS

       calibre-smtp  [options] [from to text]

DESCRIPTION

       Send  mail using the SMTP protocol. calibre-smtp has two modes of operation. In the compose mode you specify from to and text and these are
       used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.

       text is the body of the email message.  If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN.  from is the  email  address
       of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
       negotiation, the message headers are not modified.

       Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.

OPTIONS

       --version
	      show program's version number and exit

       -h, --help
	      show this help message and exit

       -l, --localhost
	      Host name of localhost. Used when connecting to SMTP server.

       -o, --outbox
	      Path to maildir folder to store failed email messages in.

       -f, --fork
	      Fork and deliver message in background. If you use this option, you should also use --outbox to handle delivery failures.

       -t, --timeout
	      Timeout for connection

       -v, --verbose
	      Be more verbose

   COMPOSE MAIL
       Options to compose an email. Ignored if text is not specified

       -a, --attachment
	      File to attach to the email

       -s, --subject
	      Subject of the email

   SMTP RELAY
       Options to use an SMTP relay server to send mail. calibre will try to send the email directly unless --relay is specified.

       -r, --relay
	      An SMTP relay server to use to send mail.

       --port Port to connect to on relay server. Default is to use 465 if encryption method is SSL and 25 otherwise.

	      Username for relay

       -p, --password
	      Password for relay
