On my server at home I am running Nagios to keep track of what my
servers and applications are doing.  I send alerts over SMTP to my pager
when things go wrong.

One of the hosts that I'm monitoring (along with various services) is
the VPS that I use as my mail relay among other things. My server at
home routes ALL outgoing mail through that server.

Of course, the problem with that of course is if the relay is down I am
going to have a hard time sending the page out telling me the relay host
is down.  This has happened and when the relay comes back I get a flood
of pages telling me that the host is down followed by the "all clear."

Is there a way to specify multiple smart hosts in postfix? Better yet,
and I probably have the answer for this already, is there a way to "hard
code" pages to go directly to the paging provider's SMTP server?
