We have many passive service checks on our Nagios server that receive status information via incoming email messages that are parsed by a Perl script (see URL below). This has proved to be essential for monitoring systems and applications that cannot be monitored with an agent. This is also used within complex shell scripts that notify Nagios of an error during execution.

I'm at the beginning stages of comparing open source solutions as a possible replacement of our Nagios system, and this functionality is essential. How can I accomplish this with Zabbix?

Thanks for your assistance.

You may do slight modifications to the Perl script to include execution of zabbix_sender utility which would send status data to ZABBIX server.
