Looks like the .inotify.dat file is getting into the log file so probably best to just filter that one out.

You could also put the .inotify.dat file in another directory as the awk code only looks for files in the /home/mrowcp/ directory

Code:
CHKFILE=/home/mrowcp/.inotify.dat
LOGFILE=/var/log/inotify.log
NOTIFY=mrowcp@domain.com
 
show_details()
{
    echo " New file(s) have arrived: "
    echo "$newfiles" | sed 's/^/    /'
}
 
# Last line to looked at - just in case a file arrives while we are working
EL=$(wc -l $LOGFILE | awk ' { print $1 }')
 
if [ -f $CHKFILE ]
then
    SL="$(cat $CHKFILE)"
    # Old position is greater than size of file - It's may have been truncated so start from begining
    [ $EL -lt $SL ] && SL=0
else
  # No remembered previous line - start from begining
  SL=0
fi
 
newfiles=$(awk -vS=$SL -vE=$EL '
   NR>E{exit}
   /^\/home\/mrowcp\/ CREATE/&&NR>=S&&$3!=".inotify.dat"{print $3}' $LOGFILE)
if [ -n "$newfiles" ]
then
   show_details | mail -s "new FTP files" $NOTIFY
fi
echo "$EL" > $CHKFILE

ftp

ftp(4)								   File Formats 							    ftp(4)

NAME

       ftp - FTP client configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/default/ftp

DESCRIPTION

       Use  the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment  lines and
       are ignored.

   Behavior Directives
       The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:

       FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no    The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send
				     LIST  instead.  In  order	to  make  the  Solaris	ftp  client  send  LIST when the ls command is issued, set
				     FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default.

       If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that	is
       specified in /etc/default/ftp.
