Please note, because this is their initial release, they are still looking to add functionality in future versions as well as support Windows Vail.
We look forward to seeing more great things coming from Christian and Maplegrove Partners.
A good point made by Alex Kuretz is if you are using his Remote Notification addin and enable warnings, it will include the MSEN messages when it emails you.
