Check File Exists and compare to previous day file script

Once know filename
You can determine the filesize with something like:
> ls -l | tr -s " " | cut -d" " -f5
You can learn the filename for the day before with something like:
>find * -mtime -2 -mtime +1
And you are left to combine the logic of the two:
>tfile=$(find /<path> -type f -name "eon*.tar.Z" -mtime -1)
>yfile=$(find /<path> -type f -name "eon*.tar.Z" -mtime -2 -mtime +1)
>tsize=$(ls -l "$tfile" | tr -s " " | cut -d" " -f5)
>ysize=$(ls -l "$yfile" | tr -s " " | cut -d" " -f5)
[I think I have all of that syntax correct
]
Now, do your math with $tsize for today's file and $ysize for yesterday.
And execute whatever corrective actions are needed.

sieveshell - remotely manipulate sieve scripts SYNOPSIS
sieveshell [--user=user] [--authname=authname] [--realm=realm] [--exec=script] server[:port] sieveshell --help DESCRIPTION
sieveshell allows users to manipulate their scripts on a remote server. It works via MANAGESIEVE, a work in progress. The following commands are recognized: list list scripts on server. put <filename> upload script to server. get <name> [<filename>] get script. if no filename display to stdout delete <name> delete script. activate <name> activate script. deactivate deactivate all scripts. OPTIONS
-u user, --user=user The authorization name to request; by default, derived from the authentication credentials. -a authname, --authname=authname The user to use for authentication (defaults to current user). -r realm, --realm=realm The realm to attempt authentication in. -e script, --exec=script Instead of working interactively, run commands from script, and exit when done.
