2nd argument of grep is a file name.
Either
Code:
printf "%s\n" "$rec" | grep -q "INFO"

or replace it by a case statement
Code:
case $rec in
 *INFO*) echo "$rec" | /usr/bin/mailx -s "Error `date`" maddy@mycompany.com
 ;;
esac

The writelog script is used to write a log entry or send it as mail. The name parameter specifies the name of the log file where the entry should be written. If it is the word ``mail'' then the entry is mailed to the news administrator, <USER specified with --with-news-mas- ter at configure>. The data that is written or sent consists of the text given on the command line, followed by standard input indented by four spaces.
