Below is what I wrote and I am not winning

Code:
cat /etc/shadow | cut -d: -f1,8 | sed /:$/d > /tmp/expirelist.txt
totalaccounts=`cat /tmp/expirelist.txt | wc -l`
for((i=1; i<=$totalaccounts; i++ ))
       do
       tuserval=`head -n $i /tmp/expirelist.txt | tail -n 1`
       username=`echo $tuserval | cut -f1 -d:`
       userexp=`echo $tuserval | cut -f2 -d:`
       userexpireinseconds=$(( $userexp * 86400 ))
       todaystime=`date +%s`
       #check if the user expired or not?
       if [ $userexpireinseconds -ge $todaystime ] ;
           then
           timeto7days=$(( $todaystime + 604800 ))
                if [ $userexpireinseconds -le $timeto7days ];
                then
                mail -s "The account $username will expire less than 7 days" root
                fi
       else
       mail -s "The user account $username already expired" root
       fi
done

amanda-scripts - Configuring and using the Script API DESCRIPTION
The Script API is a flexible system for invoking user-supplied scripts at various points in the execution of Amanda. This manual page describes the operation and configuration of the API. For help writing Script API scripts, see http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Script_API. SCRIPTS
This section lists the scripts included with Amanda, see the individual man page for instructions on using them. For complete How-To information, consult the Amanda wiki at http://wiki.zmanda.com. o amzfs-snapshot(8), - create/destroy zfs snapshot. o script-email(8), - send email. Script properties work just like application properties: they are insensitive to case, and - (dash) and _ (underscore) may be used interchangeably. SCRIPTS OUTPUT PROPERTY
A pre-dle-amcheck, pre-dle-estimate or pre-dle-backup executed on the client can output property on stdout that are sent to the application. If the output line matches "PROPERTY str1 str2", Amanda sets a property called "str1" by the value of "str2", that property is sent to the application. SEE ALSO
