The issue is that the find does not fill the variable.

ALWAYS ends up with an empty SMS_TIME regardless of the time stamp on the
file.
1. Use an absolute path, instead of the dot.
The touch command creates the file in the right directory, but yes, I can try
that.
2. What are the 7 characters that the sed-command is supposed to remove?
Just put them in the command.
"./.SMS_” I want to end up with jut the $LISTNAME in SMS_TIME so that I can
later check
LISTNAME ?? ^^$SMS_TIME^^
3. There is a weird closing-quote at the end of the sed parameter.
I think that is an artifact of my mailer “smartening” the quote, but I will
double check.
4. Log every step, while testing.
Yeah, that’s how I figured out the field is always empty, regardless.
Wil report back, the machine is doing a backup now.
