Write a cron job which pings at a server and determines if its up. If the server goes down, then send the email to yourself. You can do passive and active monitoring. In Passive monitoring you assign a server which does the monitoring. In active monitoring you have each and every machine sensing what other machines are up or not. I am presently working on a similar product using Python this is using some Mobile Agents for the job, this is being done as a part of my course work. So it will surely be a "alpha" work. But if you are interested, will let you know.
