This is true for RHEL based distros, but Debian based ones are not like that yet and also think it's not wise to depend on the OS for service status, I still like the old fashioned way here.
you are aware that in teh recent Denian systemd ist the default init-system? "not wise to depend on the OS for service status" - who else than the OS? a random script reading some textfile and calling wrapped external commands is not really relieable for a status

There was some in the .sh scriptf for the 1.x versions but not in th 3.x versions. Would be nice to see some example as I'm trying something but am not sureconsider using systemd - the whole conept about status in sysvinit is broken by design and just a workaround - why? because sysvinit has and never had a solid clue what a service really does a init system which give relieable status back needs to monitor the main-PID and not rely on PID files somewhere, well and it can monitor services and restart them automatically while a manual stop compared to monit or similar tools would not start the service again (and yes dbmail really needs some monitoring, only the crashes last weekend of our imapd would have been enough to driving an admin crazy when need to intervention each time) [root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ systemctl status dbmail-imapd.service ● dbmail-imapd.service - DBMail IMAP Server Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/dbmail-imapd.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled) Active: active (running) since Mi 2015-09-30 12:55:27 CEST; 4 days ago Main PID: 8693 (dbmail-imapd) CGroup: /system.slice/dbmail-imapd.service └─8693 /usr/sbin/dbmail-imapd -D
