SMTP Service Queue Monitoring (Windows)

[Dan Goggiano]

All,

 

            We are running a relay system in Windows 2k3 to provide some
spam filtering and virus scanning.  We occasionally have the problem of
inbound mail being received and queued but not sent out.  We monitor the
services and they (IIS + SMTP) are both running, but the queue just
keeps going.  I would like to monitor the number of files in the queue
directory to make sure a certain threshold has not been exceeded.  Has
anyone successfully done this on the Windows side with Nagios, or is
there a better way?  Can't find any useful performance counters,
etc...so help would be greatly appreciated!
