Not that this solves your problem, but what you described is precisely why we wrote QueueMon. Every once in a while either the SMTP services stop delivering or maybe one of our DNS servers has an issue that backs up the queue. With QueueMon it keeps an eye on the queue/overflow directory and will page or run a script of your choice when your queue/overflow size/growth percentage reaches a certain level. This has saved our butt several times preventing massive queue backups...
