Not necessary to ask you how you know that. Came through loud and clear. :)

Blat FTW! By far the best command-line email client. Simple but powerful, and bulletproof.

What I have in mind is a shutdown script that would email me
if a server is shut down for any reason.

Except of course crashing since shutdown scripts won't run on a server that crashes hard. :-) So have the servers watch each other. And remember, if it's the mail server that goes down it won't be around to send the mail -- ask me how I know. :-)

For your server monitoring needs, consider System Center Essentials or
System Center Operations Manager.
