Pass Parameter to Another Script

CASE and modular scripting
Just FYI.
I did something similar to this in a very old, long time ago, homework assignment.
I had a script that processed incoming data from the command line, which could come from another process. Then I had a CASE statement that called certain outside scripts depending on what the data was.
I believe in modular programming, so that you can remove or change one part of a large script, or several related scripts, without a major modification of the overall script. This group of scripts I created had 10 total scripts.
Even though you fixed your problem, try this in future scripting.

installsieve
INSTALLSIEVE(1) General Commands Manual INSTALLSIEVE(1) * NAME
installsieve - user utility for managing sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
installsieve DESCRIPTION
installsieve is a utility that allows users to manage their sieve scripts kept on the server. OPTIONS
-v <name> View script with the given name. The script if retrieved sucessfully is output to standard output. -l List all of the scripts currently on the server. If one of the scripts is active a arrow is printed indicating that it is the active script. -p <port> Port to connect to. If left off this defaults to "sieve" as defined in /etc/services. -i <file> Install a file onto the server. If a script with the same name already exists on the server it is overwritten. Upon sucessfully putting the script on the server the script is set active. If <file> has the extension .script it is chopped when put on the server since sieve names may not contain a '.'. -a <name> Set <name> as the active script. The list of available names can be obtained from the '-l' option.. -d <name> Delete the sieve script on the server with <name>. -m <mechanism> Force installsieve to use <mechanism> for authentication. If not specified the strongest authentication mechanism is chosen. -g <name> Get the sieve script with <name> and save it to disk with a ".script" extension. If a file with that name already exists it is overwritten. -u <user> Userid/Authname to use for authentication; by default, the current user. CMU
