How to configure Oracle11g to send out Password Expiry Notifications vide SMS or e-mail? Please guide me in configuring Oracle11g to send out Password Expiry Notifications vide SMS or e-mail before password expiry of one week or upon user's profile entering into grace period or any other given condition.
With all the possibilities of not expired, in grace period and expired this can be quite tricky.  As well many databases have service accounts that there is no point in sending emails to as they do not have an email address. In order to get this right you need:


a database profile for the people whose passwords expire and you wish to advise
a table to hold their database username, email, phone
a procedure or external process so that when a new user is added you add them to your email table.  Do not put a trigger on dba_users!
a logging table so when someone's password expires and they say they were not notified you can show when the email was sent
a table/package to hold constants like the name of the email domain 


I had this code created by someone on our team to answer the same problem. It works but could be improved.  I leave the profile, table and some package names as an exercise
