to the headers. But a google search doesn't show any sort
of standard on what is an "urgent" message and what to do
with it.
Correct.
I'm asking because we're on a dial-up link and I've got some
scripts that check the queue every 5 minutes and then dials
out when the queue reaches X messages. One of my users
asked if there was a way to have it dial automatically when
there was an urgent outgoing message. Her "solution" right
now is to send X messages to a bad address so that she
knows the queue is full and her "urgent" message will go
out right away. (I can't decide whether to yell at her or
hire her as a systems administrator! :-)
Hire her as an admin, and have her write the script that greps through all
the messages in the queue (you can't have that many), and dials out if the
queue contains an urgent message.
