Steve,
Oh ... we use a nomonitor script ... the resident script-kiddies (aka Unix SAs) love that stuff. But to give you an idea, I am paying T-Mobile $2.99 extra per month so my monthly text message limit is 550 messages. The email goes to my Outlook and phone. I find the delete all feature particularly handy. I use caution though ...
Raj

Subject: RE: Database tracking
at a former employer per damagement direction... we had a perl script named
pageme which was called by our monitoring scripts whenever they detected and
event that required the on-call DBA be paged. the author of pageme had the
forethought to add a nopage feature. it looked for a file called nopage in
a certain directory and did nothing if found. mysterious cron entries were
sometimes known to touch the nopage file as it was approaching bed time and
rm it in the morning. the frequency of these mysterious cron entries
increased as damagement's desire to page on events of questionable
importance increased
