Alert action: script/send email

Questionario

Hi,

I want to create an alert that if our emailservers or internet line is down to connect to a different server and send an email through a webmail account to a pager email.

currently I am using some external program which sends an email based on some xml file, unfortunately that program is a bit flawed...

Has anyone done something similar and could share?

Without knowing why your existing solution is flawed I can't suggest a replacement - what's wrong with it?

Questionario

well, it seems like messages get cut off from time to time, i guess the program (self written by I dont know who) isnt flawless.

so a solution with a different program would be fine as well :P

I don't really have a suggested answer. I'm just curious about the integration between NPM and your external program. So does NPM test for connectivity to your e-mail servers and the Internet. Then, if either are down, it'll launch your external program which is preconfigured to send e-mail using an alternate e-mail server?

Questionario

yes
