LAUNCHING EXTERNAL PROCESS FROM TRIGGER

Is it possible for a stored procedure or database trigger to launch an independant server-side process (such as mailx, or any other non-oracle process)? Our database is version 7.1.6 running under Solaris.

(We don't have OCI or PRO*C, which I suspect we need to do this sort of thing.)

Thanks in advance ...
