Hi , I am able to see the list. as it's a big list ( around 10k lines) i am not sure how to copy the entire result set.
So I would like to create a file "Test.txt' and would like to move this result set to test.txt and need to send the test.txt file to my mail.
Please advise.
Thanks

As RudiC already has told you: pipe it into mail! There is no need for an intermediary file:
This will generate the list, put it into a mail, label the mail with the subject text "Subject Text" and send it to recipient@host.
But i would like to go over your command itself, because it is unnecessary complicated and will tax your system a lot more than it should.
First:
The egrep is completely unnecessary because awk can do that itself:
Instead of producing all lines first and filter out the ones you are not interested in you start with only the ones you are interested in in first place.
Next:
This makes find first produce a list of directory names and then invoke the ls command once for every directory found that way. There is a built-in functionality in find which does about the same:
The format is a little different (it is like ls -ails) which means you will have to modify the awk-command following a little bit. But this will definitely save the system some thousands of unnecessary calls to ls.
Next:
As i take it you are searching for directories owned (or, in your case: NOT owned) by a specific user ("oasitqtc"). For this find also has a built-in provision: the -user clause. It takes a user name (or user ID) and presents only the files/directories found that are owned by that user. For instance:
will find in the current directory all directories with names starting with "abc" and owned by user "myuser". You will have to reverse that, which is also possible (notice the "!", which is a logical NOT), and you do neither awks ability to filter out lines nor egrep to do the same:
Again: because of the different output format you will have to modify the awk-statement to only leave the necessary information. If you have GNU-find (like if you work on a Linux-System) you could use the -printf-clause and you would not need awk at all.
I hope this helps.

Hi.
Regarding email enclosures and attachments, from a recent security newsletter:
--Malicious Macros in Word Documents
(March 14, 2016)
Malicious macros embedded in Word documents are increasingly being used
as an attack vector. Researchers have now found a variant in which the
documents use fileless malware; in other words, they place malware
directly into the device's memory. The attack was delivered through
targeted spam that contains a malicious document. If the macros are
permitted to run, they use PowerShell to gather information about the
computer. The malware looks for machines where financial transactions
are conducted.
This is a reason I don't look at emails that contain Word, Excel, etc. documents. The OP may be comfortable looking at such email from himself or colleagues, but I would not be. Text is, in my opinion, the best and only kind of attachment allowed.
Excel will gladly open .csv files (usually "," delimited) or .txt file (tab) delimited.
drl pointed out why it is a security no-no to try using proprietary windows formats that support embedded program text like VB - that will execute when opened.
For example:
