There is a Linux command "who", which lists logged in users. Not sure if 
it indicates ftp users or not (prob not).

So, if you scripted something with pseudocode along the lines of:

if (who|grep username)
	mail message
	die
else
	die


Make this a cron job, every x minutes (to suit priority of mission).

So the answer is yes, you can email to an address when a user is logged 
in to a given account, if it corresponds with the cron job..

Hope this helps.

ps There is, no doubt, 41 better ways. But you asked is it possible, the 
answer is yes.
