You could use a batch file or shell script and count files recursively setting 
the exit code to the number of files.  Then use the external error level check. 
This is how I monitor the health of our mail queue.  Actually I might have had 
to write the number to a file and then get that number.  Either way wanted to 
give you an idea of an alternative.  Is it a linux based mail server or 
Windows?

 Subject:   [External Email] [SA-List] Directory Size Monitoring 


I need to monitor the size of a directory recursively and send an alert when 
the size exceeds a user-definable threshold.

The directory is a mail queue on our email server and when it starts getting 
large, it usually indicates a compromised email account being used to send spam.

Is there any Servers Alive add-on that could do this?
