Send email recipient based on filename
Hi All
can someone help please create a bash script.
Here's a scenario:
1. I have a directory where it's a destination for scanned documents. e.g. /dest/scan
2. The filename is in the form IDNumber_Category. e.g. 123456_notes.pdf
3. The first part of the script is to rename the filename so that it will add the date and time (up to the minute and seconds) . e.g. 123456_notes_0824201012301503.pdf
4. it will then move this new filename to /dest/scan/out/123456_notes_0824201012301503.pdf
5. the last part of the script is then to email to the recipient in the form:
to:123456@domain.com and
subject line: /dest/scan/out/123456_notes_0824201012301503.pdf
Body:/dest/scan/out/123456_notes_0824201012301503.pdf
6. it will then continue to the next file until the directory is empty.
note: I don't really need to attache the file.
Thanks!

NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
ATTRIBUTES

script can pose a security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
