just have your ppp.up script run:
 
/bin/kill -ALRM `/sbin/pidof qmail-send`
 
That way it'll send the ALRM signal to qmail-send (which triggers qmail to process the queue) everytime the link comes up.

Subject: how to make qmail to send remote mail at particular time

Hi everybody,
 
I have Linux system with qmail and vpopmail installed, which connects to the Internet throu ppp. I read in "Life with qmail" that qmail processes every message individualy and I found that remote messages stay in the queue too long, even worse, it is possible a message not to be send at all.
 
How can I make qmail to try to send remote mail when ppp ling comes up?
 
In the mailing list archive I read something about sending the remote mail in maildir and using maildir2smtp when ling comes up, but how to make this to work with vpopmail?
 
Thank you,
 
Milen Petrinski
