Is there a way to create some script that can actually monitor if mail is delivered to a mailbox and alert you if it is not. Every time I have had a major problem with Exim, I was unaware of the problem. Like if Clamd just stops, exim will fail.
 
You can monitor the appropriate log with a cronjob that runs as often as you want, and if it finds certain content send you an email.

(Yes you can use exim to send you an email even if it's not delivering email, as long as it's to an address not on your server.)

This sounds very good. I will post this in the work for hire section. Thanks Jeff.
