pileofrogs has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Greetings, Monks through whom perl doth rock.
I'm a sysadmin and I recently got bitten by a script that sent me an SMS message every minute for several days leading to a $300 phone bill. Before now, it's only been filling up the inbox, but that sucks too.
What is the best way to limit alert messages? I'm sure there are many reasonable approaches and some of you have probably already given this problem some thought.
Thanks!
