The check_email_delivery plugin allows you to send an email message and then check that it was received. This is also called checking an email loop. This is accomplished through two additional plugins (included), called check_smtp_send and check_imap_receive. As of version 0.5, you can also use other plugins to do create the loop. This project includes: check_smtp_send - connects to an SMTP server and sends a message check_imap_receive - connects to and searches an IMAP account for messages check_email_delivery - sends email and verifies delivery using other plugins You can use check_smtp_send and check_imap_receive independently, and you can use check_email_delivery to check that an email loop is working.

This plugin is written in python and does two things each time it runs : 1 - Sends an email containing an id to a specified address, and stores the id to a specified file. 2 - Checks a specified pop3 account to see if the previous message was received. Usage : --relay --popserver --popuser --poppassword --to --from --idfile
