Hi could anyone help?

I am running a Linux box as an e-mail host with a ppp connection
to my service provider on one side and a number of UUCP dial-ins
on the other. Is there a script that will bring up and drop the ppp 
connection on demand:

ie:	when there is x amount of mail to be sent or every n hours if there 
	is no outgoing mail.

Many thanks
