E-mail based on crontab hour

I have a cron: 0 5,11,17,23 * * * /home/oracle/scripts/sysize.ksh

This cron will trigger

cat dbsz.txt | mail -s "$TODAY: PROD DB Size" $RECIPIENTS

I don't want to get the e-mail notice 4 times a day. Can I have just one e-mail triggered at 11 AM?

Please advise.

Thank you

CONFLICT(8)                                                          [nmh-1.5]                                                         CONFLICT(8)

NAME
conflict - search for alias/password conflicts SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/mh/conflict [-search directory] [-mail name] [-version] [-help] [aliasfiles ...] DESCRIPTION
Conflict is a program that checks to see if the interface between nmh and the transport system is in good shape Conflict also checks for maildrops in /var/mail which do not belong to a valid user. It assumes that no user name will start with `.', and thus ignores files in /var/mail which begin with `.'. It also checks for entries in the group(5) file which do not belong to a valid user, and for users who do not have a valid group number. In addition duplicate users and groups are noted. If the -mail name switch is used, then the results will be sent to the specified name. Otherwise, the results are sent to the standard output. The -search directory switch can be used to search directories other than /var/mail and to report anomalies in those directories. The -search directory switch can appear more than one time in an invocation to conflict. Conflict should be run under cron(8), or whenever system accounting takes place. FILES
