Short answer: You can't.

Long answer: Write a script that adds a "to-send" email file in mbox format
(or some such) somewhere on the server, and have your cron run a script that
sends those out whenever appropriate. The notification command script should
ofcourse only queue mail for when you don't want to send it, and otherwise
send it immediately.
