1) Please configure your email client to post in plain text BEFORE (or
instead of) HTML. We *N?X folk (Linux/UNIX) dont much like HTML emails
Actually, I composed that on Linux using mutt. I see you're using pine,
which honestly I used for years and years before I came to my senses and
swtiched- mostly because mutt's handling of MIME (and specifically
PGP/MIME which has replaced in-line PGP signatures which is all that
pine supports) is so much better. But I don't want to get into a
pissing contest over who's mail client is better (well at least not
today :-)
Anyways, the MIME attachment you saw wasn't HTML crap (I hate that too),
but rather my RFC compliant PGP signature. If you're not interested
in that sort of thing, by all means, ignore it.
2) Wrong mailing list to ask that question about escalating paging.
Actually the question was about email and paging using two-way pagers
which have email addresses. Yes, escalation was an important part
of that. Perhaps this wasn't clear enough in my original email;
I appologize.
3) To answer your question: Look at Big Brother http://www.bb4.com/
Yep, I'm familar with that. Unfortunately, I don't want/need a
system/network monitoring software. I just want something that when it
recieves an email (say: emergency-contact(_at_)company(_dot_)com) it does the
pager
escalation thing until one of the pagers emails a response "I'm on it".
Again, I probably wasn't clear enough.

All emails are PGP signed; a lack of a signature indicates a forgery.
