On top of what Don Cragun asked, there are some more informations that could help to taylor a solution:
Is ctftestdump your (company's) own command or script, i.e. are you responsible and in a position to analyse / modify it? How is it to be terminated under normal circumstances? Does it deliver a (meaningful?) exit status? Is that reliable and could be exploited for your purpose?
You seemingly post stdout from your command / script - what is querytas.txt for? After how many 5001=-46<ETX> occurrences should the new script terminate / send the e-mails? How long should it wait for that string? Is 46 the only error number? Is <ETX> that literal ASCII string or the ASCII control code "end of text" (0x03)?
cron sends e-mails with a job's output when it finishes - would that be sufficient to accomplish the task?
BTW: The shebang you tried to use is the wrong way round. Make it #!.

script(1) General Commands Manual script(1)
NAME
script - Makes a transcript of terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [file]
The script command makes a transcript of everything printed on your terminal.
OPTIONS
Appends the transcript to file rather than writing it to file.
OPERANDS
The name of an output file that will contain the transcript of the session. If this parameter is omitted, the file typescript is written.
DESCRIPTION
The transcript is written to file, or appended to file if the -a option is given. If no file name is given, the transcript is saved in the
file typescript.
The script ends when the forked shell exits.
This program is useful when you are using a CRT and want a hard-copy record of the dialog (for example, a technical writer might create an
example of a working session this way).
If you specify the -a option and the file does not exist, it is created.
If you do not specify the -a option and the file exists, it is replaced.
RESTRICTIONS
The script command requires a streams based terminal. In single user mode, streams may not be enabled. Under these circumstances, script
will exit with no action. If you are the superuser and need to run this command in single user mode, use the following special instruc-
tions.
Enabling Streams
If it is necessary to enable a streams environment in the single user mode, enter the command /sbin/init.d/streams. This command is avail-
able to the superuser only.
