use NTsendmail;
opendir(MYDIR, "E:/cd/sci/Prod/outbound") or die ("Cannot open dir to read");
chdir("E:/cd/sci/Prod/outbound");
@name = readdir(MYDIR);

foreach $x (@name) {

  
 if ( -s $x and -M $x > 0.028 )   { 
 $write_secs = (stat($x))[9];
 $sendmail = "yes";
 $message .= sprintf " %s  updated on %s

", $x,scalar localtime($write_secs);
 
 
 }

 closedir DIR;
 #print $message;
