You are obviously turning on some sort of logging other than write_log() when you invoke sftp. You have not provided us with enough information about how you are invoking sftp to determine how you do that particular logging.

HI,

Yes you were correct. I was calling my ksh file through a wrapper class which was actually logging sftp commands.
So now I have decided to log these commands into another file using the below code. So that the log file which I require for mailing will have only specified logs.

Code:
sftp $USER@$HOST<<EOF >sftp_log_file.log 2>&1 
cd $DIR lcd $DIR/files mget *$FILEEXT1 
rm *$FILEEXT1 
quit 
EOF

Thanks RavinderSingh13 and fpmurphy for the help. Smilie
