from a script, check the disk space and if it reaches x% to capacity, email out.
i take it this is what you are looking for?
you could simply look at the output of `df -h` and awk out the capacity. then depending on its results, use `mailx` to send out an email.
however, may i suggest snmp traps? if you have a NMS in place already, this is much more efficient. look into upgrading net-snmp to latest version and adjust snmpd and associated config files accordingly.
you don't need to go through the hassle of setting up a smtp server.

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.
