$upperLimit = 80;              # Upper Limit in % for a File System

my @fileStats = <STATS>;

foreach $entryLine (@fileStats) {

  $entryLine =~ s/\s+/ /g;
  my @fsStats = split(/ /, $entryLine);
  $fsStats[4] =~ s/%//g;

    open(MAIL, "|mail -s \"FileSystem $fsStats[0] Getting Full!\" $mailTarget ") || die "Can't open m
ail!";
    select(MAIL);
    print << "EOF";

    The FileSystem $fsStats[0] is getting full.
    Currently, the file system is ${fsStats[4]}% full. The upper
    limit has been placed at ${upperLimit}%.

    Please attend to this matter.
