I've been experimenting with Nuage and am not impressed. Nuage creates an e-mail account for you on their server. E-mail sent to that account is supposed to be pushed to the Nuage app on your iPhone. Sometimes it works, but more often than not the Nuage server rejects the e-mail with a "user unknown" NDR.
If it was more reliable it would be a simple matter to use an IM e-mail notifier set to that address, but so far it has been next to useless. I've sent a query to Nuage support, and hope they can straighten it out. I'll take a closer look at Prowl, but at first glance it looks like it requires Growl running on Mac OS or Windows so may not be usable here since we run IM Server on a Linux box. Which prompts this IM feature request: The iPhone is becoming pretty ubiquitous even in the IT world that rejected it for so long. How about adding a push notifier to IM, and create an IM app for iPhone to receive the notification, sound the alarm, and display an alert? -- Chip Old (Francis E.
