argh i remember having to deal with this. you actually have a few options at your disposal. there are free third party apps out there that does this type of thing for you. one of them thruk. you may have heard of it. i had some problems with it, but it may work perfectly for you.
i personally prefer to work on things from the backend. i did some rigorous searching. found
Nagios Automation. i use a few of the scripts from that site. they work pretty well. does what i need. it looks like they're now charging for ALL their scripts though. try contacting their support email. you should get a free already developed script for what your trying to do. got one about a month ago to remove a bunch of devices all at once

MAILPING-LATENCY(1) Mailping MAILPING-LATENCY(1)
NAME
mailping-latency - Munin plugin to graph latency of mail deliveries
SYNOPSIS
/usr/share/mailping/munin-plugins/mailping-latency {[config] | ['']}
DESCRIPTION
mailping-latency is a Munin plugin that monitors the time spent between email submit and it's delivery.
Configuration output
When passed config, it outputs Munin configuration information. If there are no circuits defined (no subdirectories in /etc/mailping), it
specifies that Munin should draw no graph either.
If configuration files /etc/mailping/circuit/warnlatency and /etc/mailping/circuit/faillatency exist, the values in them are passed on to
Munin, for use in Nagios alert integration.
Value output
When passed an empty string '', mailping-latency outputs latency of last successful probe message, for each configured circuit.
FILES
/etc/mailping/
List of circuits that exist; each subdirectory is a circuit.
/etc/mailping/circuit/warnlatency
If latency is greater than this many seconds, a Nagios warning is triggered by Munin (assuming it has been configured to do that).
Default: no warnings.
/etc/mailping/circuit/faillatency
If latency is greater than this many seconds, a Nagios alert is triggered by Munin (assuming it has been configured to do that).
Default: no alerts.
/var/lib/mailping/state/circuit/latency
Amount of latency in seconds of the last successful probe for circuit.
ENVIRONMENT
MAILPING_CONFIGDIR
Override the location of the configuration directory. Default: /etc/mailping
MAILPING_STATEDIR
Override the location of the state directory. Circuit states are stored in the state subdirectory of this directory, in subdirectories
named after the circuit name. Default: /var/lib/mailping
