check_mailq exim patch and instructions...

[Shaun.Reitan [at] NDCHost.com]

I wanted check_mailq to work with exim and a quick modification to the code
was all that was needed.  I was unable to find any info on this but it
works.  Let me know if theres any questions/problems.

INSTRUCTIONS
1. touch /usr/bin/mailq
2. echo -e '#!/bin/sh\n/usr/sbin/exim -bpc' > /usr/bin/mailq
3. cd /usr/local/nagios/libexec
4. touch check_mailq.patch
5. Copy and paste the code below into this file
6. patch -p0 < check_mailq.patch
7. dont forget to edit utils.pm and set the mailq path to /usr/bin/mailq
