It seems to me that without procmail your notifier will be usable only if you get no more than a few emails a day. The normal linux-il traffic alone will swamp your phone unless you read it as digest ;-) Not only that, do you *really* need or want your cell phone to beep for every odd email, including spam, that arrives in your mailbox? You say you don't have access to the computer that runs the POP3 service. Fine. However, I assume you do have access to a computer that runs the POP3 client for you, and where you have sendsms installed. Rather than write the whole thing in perl, have you thought of simply running fetchmail or equivalent on it, and use procmail to invoke sendsms on emails you want to be notified of, such as critical failures on the computer system you administer. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
