Does anyone know of a good (preferably free) tool that will watch a
directory and if there are any files older than XXX send some kind of
notification/alert?

Apparently this morning around 1:29am GMT CF got locked out of the Spool
directory. It could write to the directory, but wasn't sending mail. I ended
up having to kick the services to get it up and running again.

Anyway, my boss wants to make sure we know ASAP if mails not going out. The
most straightforward method seems like to watch the spool directory and if
there's files in there older than a couple of minutes, well, then I know the
spool isn't sending mail. Obviously, I'd need to be notified in some manor
other than CFMAIL, so I'd prefer the product to be able to send SMTP mail on
it's own.

So, in a nutshell I'm looking for something to monitor spool folders and to
generate a notification alert if a folder has files in it and it has not
removed any files recently.

Anyway recommendations? I've been searching all evening and haven't found
anything that does exactly what I need...
