I really monitor SMTP through the port. the monitoring of spawned application is just for capacity planning. If this application is starting to run more than xxx spawned processes, I will have to up the current limit, but I do not want to do it until necessary (spam and dos prevention). As well, yearly graphs show the increase of use of the service and allow me to plan my upgrade.
