The cronjob is using 'mutt' to mail me the .gz files at a set period.

It says:

cd /var/lib/pgbackrest/archive/main/10/0000000100000000/
echo "" | mutt -s "Ttile" test(at)example(dot)com -a *.gz

Of course, once 0000000100000000 becomes 0000000100000001, this no longer
works.

Is there, perhaps, a better way to achieve my goal?

Thanks again - I do appreciate all your help.
