Comment:

 The script looks good to me. Some thoughts:
 - It's not super urgent in this case, but putting the email password in an
 environment variable would allow us to not have it in the bash history
 - 60 seconds seems a bit fast for email. How about making this 5-10
 minutes? I'm thinking in terms of reducing false positives plus being
 realistic about our response time to the alert.
 - Is there a reason we're logging in twice (once at

 #diff-d0583351ac71e6c7bfc1e74d665de991R56 L56] and once at

 #diff-d0583351ac71e6c7bfc1e74d665de991R128 L128])?

 Other than that, it looks good but I'll put it in needs_information
