Well, you know the problem is in your script. Maybe you can get another SysAdmin to look at it (at your office) if you can't/won't post the script.

Take a break or leave it for tomorrow(and in the middle of the night you will probably figure it out). Also, you could change anything you believe you need to for security reasons. If you think my home directory is myhome and my user ID is justme....
It is common to insure you don't put something out here that may show where someone might be able to get into. If you did, some of us would probably notice and let you know to change it. I called and emailed one person (female) who left their email and phone number on one of their questions (at the time I was not a moderator so I couldn't edit it). She was shocked that I knew her number. I told her to change the post immediately. She deleted it and never did get an answer to her problem. You just have to be careful.

reporter-mailx

REPORTER-MAILX(1)						 LIBREPORT MANUAL						 REPORTER-MAILX(1)

NAME

       reporter-mailx - Sends contents of a problem directory via email.

SYNOPSIS

       reporter-mailx [-v] -d DIR [-c CONFFILE]

DESCRIPTION

       The tool reads a problem directory, composes an email message from the directory contents, and uses mailx to send the message to specified
       recipient.

       Properties of email messages can be specified in a configuration file, and via environment variables.

   Configuration file
       Configuration file contains entries in a format "Option = Value".

       The options are:

       Subject
	   The subject of the email message.

       EmailFrom
	   The sender of the email message.

       EmailTo
	   The recipient of the email message.

       SendBinaryData
	   Use yes/true/on/1 to attach all binary files from the problem directory to the email. This can cause the emails to be very large.

   Integration with ABRT events
       reporter-mailx can be used as a reporter, to allow users report problems via email when they decide to do it. This usage is pre-configured
       in /etc/libreport/events.d/mailx_event.conf:

	   EVENT=report_Mailx	   reporter-mailx

       It can also be used to notify administrator automatically when a problem happens. When this is desired, modify the event configuration file
       to run the tool on the post-create event:

	   EVENT=post-create	   reporter-mailx

OPTIONS

       -d DIR
	   Path to problem directory.

       -c CONFFILE
	   Path to configuration file. When used in ABRT event system, the file contains site-wide configuration. Users can change the values via
	   environment variables.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       Environment variables take precedence over values provided in the configuration file.

       Mailx_Subject
	   Subject of the email message.

       Mailx_EmailFrom
	   Sender of the email message.

       Mailx_EmailTo
	   Recipient of the email message. If nor the environment variable nor the corresponding option is defined, the message is send to
	   "root@localhost".

       Mailx_SendBinaryData
	   Use yes/true/on/1 to attach all binary files from the problem directory to the email.
