Have you considered using a SNMP deamon and check for alert conditions using that.

There are already quite a few commercial status monitoring tools around (Nagios/SolarWinds/Cacti come to mind) that can send SMS/email etc. alerts whenever a number of conditions arise, monitor and graph trends and the like.

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 SEE ALSO
