Instead of sending mail, write a file elsewhere, and
look for that file at reboot: if file is present, send mail and delete the
file.
Of
course, you'll be warned of the reboot just after that.
Anyway, if qmail starts with the machine, why the alert isn't in the
queue?

Oggetto: Rebooting before sending mail
Hi. I have a problem: When my machine is rebooting/shutdown, I have set up a rc-script that sends a mailalert to the administrator that the machine has been rebooted. But the machine makes the reboot so fast that the mail never gets send. Any ideas to solve this little problem?
