Using cron would be difficult since it runs jobs on a schedule - reboots don't normally happen that way.
Put a startup script which emails you when the server reboots. Since you didn't post what OS or version you are running, I can't give you specifics of where the script should go (For Solaris in /etc/rc2.d or /etc/rc3.d would be a good place).
You would want it to start after the network is up and running so putting it as S99some-name should work (again, it matters on what your OS is).
Create S99serverup in /etc/rc2.d would send a email to your address at your domain with the hostname and reboot as subject. No internal message but you can change that with information placed into another file if needed.
#!/bin/sh
/bin/mailx -s"`hostname` reboot"
youremail@yourdomain.xxx < /dev/null
exit

net::smtp::server::relay
Server::Relay(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Server::Relay(3pm)
NAME
Net::SMTP::Server::Relay - A simple relay module for Net::SMTP::Server.
SYNOPSIS
use Carp;
use Net::SMTP::Server;
use Net::SMTP::Server::Client;
use Net::SMTP::Server::Relay;
$server = new Net::SMTP::Server('localhost', 25) ||
croak("Unable to handle client connection: $!
");
while($conn = $server->accept()) {
# We can perform all sorts of checks here for spammers, ACLs,
# and other useful stuff to check on a connection.
# Handle the client's connection and spawn off a new parser.
# This can/should be a fork() or a new thread,
# but for simplicity...
my $client = new Net::SMTP::Server::Client($conn) ||
croak("Unable to handle client connection: $!
");
# Process the client. This command will block until
# the connecting client completes the SMTP transaction.
$client->process || next;
# In this simple server, we're just relaying everything
# to a server. If a real server were implemented, you
# could save email to a file, or perform various other
# actions on it here.
my $relay = new Net::SMTP::Server::Relay($client->{FROM},
$client->{TO},
$client->{MSG});
}
DESCRIPTION
The Net::SMTP::Server::Relay module implements simple SMTP relaying for use with the Net::SMTP::Server module. All this module does is to
take a given message and iterate through the list of recipients, doing DNS lookups for the associated MX record and delivering the
messages. This module makes extensive use of the plethora of other modules already implemented for Perl (specifically the DNS and
Net::SMTP modules in this case), and should give but a glimpse of the potential for extending the Net::SMTP::Server's functionality to
provide a full-featured SMTP server, native to Perl.
The above example illustrates the use of the Net::SMTP::Server::Relay modules -- you simply have to instantiate the module, passing along
the sender, recipients, and message. More formally:
$relay = new Net::SMTP::Server::Relay($from, @to, $msg);
Where $from is the sender, @to is an array containing the list of recipients, and $msg is the message to relay.
