UDP being connectionless, I don't see how the client can possibly "know" that the message was received; however, a modifiable threshold on the server could possibly help with the issue. For example, a setting in the .conf file that tells it to expect 5 messages every 15 minutes, otherwise send an alert (numbers complete subject to user determination). Of course, a better place for the setting would be in the clients.conf file so that you can set these specs per client rather than an overall setting for the server.
