SNMP is a great way to watch out for things and to track them

We have a 270 appliance running R65 (so basically a splat box) but from
time to time email will get stuck there and build up in the spool
directory. Simply pushing a rule or database on the firewall will wake
it up and it quickly catches up and the mails flow through just fine.
But if I had an easy way to track how many files are in that directory
via SNMP, life would be easy as I could see it happen instead of a gang
of users come hunting!! Does anybody have suggestions of how to best
deal with this?? I use SNMP and monitor the disk and CPU just fine, but
am looking for something a bit farther off the norm.
SNMP supports writing a script and the run it periodically when you
query an OID. Just look into a snmpd.conf file in RHEL 3 (for R65) to
see how you can get something up and running pretty quick.J
