Monitoring a mail server

[Jim Pye]

Guys

Jumping in here. I use a PERL script called sendEmail available from:

http://caspian.dotconf.net/menu/Software/SendEmail/

It works from the command line and if you are interested I can give you
the nagios command .cfg entries to add.

It works on Linux, Windows and being PERL I modified the script to work
on NetWare (it uses a couple of functions that NetWare does not support)

HTH
