I am not sure how you are specifying 'group_email', but if you are giving email id, please provide that in a double quotes in place of group_email.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
df -B / | awk 'NR >= 2 {print $1, $5+0}' | while read partition usep
do
  if [[ ${usep} -ge 90 ]]; then
    echo "Running out of space \"${partition} ${usep}%\" on $(hostname) as on $(date)" | \
 mail -s "Alert: Almost out of disk space on $(hostname)" group_email
  fi
done

Moderator's Comments:
Mod Comment I have changed the threads title. Please give your threads some meaningful title. "please help to write a script" doesn't exactly deserve this description - and as a long standing member you really ought to know by now.

If you want us to undergo the effort to answer your questions you might as well undergo the effort to come up with a title which quintessentially describes your goal, no? Quid pro quo...
