Monitoring a mail server

[David Johnson]

Depending upon what you want to check, there are many solutions. I'm not
familiar with Amavisd, so I can't say for certain.  However it seems that
you may to look at: check_smtp, check_mailq, check_proc, and check_tcp
(among others).  You can even write your own quickly. I'm not sure I
understand, but check_tcp will notify you if it is down.
