this has happened a few times that we notice that we are not getting mail from the sql

if i restart sql and then run
exec sysmail_stop_sp
exec sysmail_start_sp

it starts again but it takes till someone alerts me it's down

is there any way around this or at least to get an alert?

Check the Database Mail logs (system tables in msdb that start with sysmail).
