| That make a good idea for a program. Question: If the mail server is down, how are you going to get the alert email, unless you use a differnet email server? |

look at this one I found.
Its the best but only because I got it to work 
Specifically I got it to send an email to me, and yes its to a different address than my server. Couldnt find any that would text message.

I found a couple others but they were either resource hogs or didnt send me mail.... |

Interesting.. I did take a look, this tool will tell you if the server is running, but in the case of ArGo, it will not specifically test to see if SMTP is working. I have run into situation where the server is fine, but ArGo was stopped.

I figure I know thatits not running by not getting my mail - my step 1 is "am I up", and 2 is is Argo running.
Try www.karenware.com - she has a free LAN Monitor that does sites so you could monitor the web page, but you also need her emailer2 program.
I did find some progs that monitored ports and some that monitored services....a free one that worked on ports and services BUT for only one computer....it cost for more than one.
yea, out of the blue yesterday my Argo stopped at 4:02AM. I would say it was during an auto backup but I dont think anything was running....... |

- Improved Export to .NET function - sometimes email messages were not getting exported, because
the database of email messages was not up to date. Now each folder gets rebuilt before the export
function;

| Mail Server v1.0.5.8 | |
Mail Server
- Mailbags now have an option to accept mail only when specified server is down - will help to fight
with spam which attempt to deliver mail bypassing the main server;
- When delivering mail, if main exchanger returns 4xx reply (temporary problem), the server will not
try other exchangers, will retry later the main exchanger;
- Server options moved from registry to a XML file. 64 bit versions of Vista and 2008 server appear
to be having access rights problems to the Windows registry, and the change will make our server more
compatible with 64 bit versions;
- Added an option to specify the number of lines on the log screen, when using the user interface.
Was causing memory problems if left running for long time;
- Fixed couple of problems, which were showing when SQL server was set up to use
case sensitive SQL statements;
- Made changes in the remoting interface to allow logging in using aliases;
Web Interface
- Made changes to allow logging in using aliases;
- When viewing folders, web interface now displays the name of logged in user;

| FTP Server v1.0.1.6 |
- Server settings have been moved from registry to the XML file, which will be
located in the common application data directory. 64 bit versions of Windows were
having trouble writing into the registry; similar change
is coming to the mail server;
- If used, XML files (Users.XML, Groups.XML and ServerOptions.XML) will also be moved
to the common application data directory;

| FTP Server v1.0.1.5 |
- When performing active data transfers on systems with multiple IP addresses, data
connections were using first available IP address, rather than one on which the control
connection was active. It was causing confusion with firewalls and routers;
