Re: Shell script for a mail queue notification!

mailx.html seems to be a big thing install compare to the purpose it.

Anyway the sms option will be perfect. I am trying to find how this can be
done from the server.
any help?
Is there any way to pass some data to another server to trigger something to
send an email?

fine by executing the qmHandle -s command.

But I found out these mail notification is not suitable to alert the
admin, since if the mail queue is huge then notification mail will also
wait until the other mails been delivert. so the solution is not ideal.

What other way I can make this alert? is there any way to alert another
server to send an email? or any other suggestions?

Does your distro have nail (now known as Heirloom mailx)?
http://heirloom.sourceforge.net/mailx.html
"Supports SMTP to send messages directly to a remote server."

Alternatively you could consider sending via IM or as SMS message to
admin's cellphone.
