I'm assuming that's the case. I haven't had time to call to confirm it.

I haven't tried it yet, but couldn't Tweakr be used for that purpose (selective notification)?

I already use Tweakr for just that kind of thing. I've got several profiles set up - daytime, nighttime, quiet, etc. there's different settings for email, SMS, email & ring tune & volume.

What about having your servers send you messages via e-mail, Jabber or GTalk? Then you could have your N900 alert you when one of those comes in, instead of SMS. The best thing about the N900 is that it can be on the 'Net 24/7.

That's an interesting idea. I've never played with sending IM from the command-line. Any idea what's involved?
