The trouble with this type of raw email notification is lack of
correlation and reliability.  If the MTA is out of action you'll get no
notice.  If the agent attempts repeated repairs repeated emails are
sent.  This can be very disheartening.  

As has been mentioned a monitoring and alerting system would be better
for this.  Something like OpenNMS can correlate events into a single
alarm and escalate notification while avoiding the information storm
than can come from 'dumb' notification services.
