You are completely missing the point!
If mail is stuck on your server, you can't send mail to anyone saying that mail is stuck because the mail message saying the mail is stuck will also be stuck.
The entire point of this thread is that your mail server is
failing to deliver mail messages. If we ignore that there is a possible
server failure, there is no need to send a message saying there has been a failure since you want to ignore what has happened.
If we don't ignore that your mail server has
failed, you have to use some mechanism other than mail to deliver that notification.
As an example, if your car runs out of gas, you can't drive that car to a gas station to get more gas. You can call AAA to deliver gas to you; you can walk to a gas station, buy a gas can, fill the can with gas, walk back to your car, and put the gas you bought into you car; you can abandon your car and start using a bicycle to get around; or you can get around several other ways.
But, until you fix your
mail server failure, you can't send mail to anyone saying that you have a
mail server failure.
