then
journalctl -x --show-cursor -u smartd --since=yesterday
else

dmesg -T -l err,crit,alert,emerg
fi
echo '<h2>All Details</h2>'
echo '<hr>'
sudo smartctl --xall /dev/$HDD
echo "Thanks for using Amit Agarwal's script"
echo '</pre></html>'

and then put this in cron:

You need to have mail configured to receive the mails.
