I would be interested in that package as well, especially for the function of redirecting notifications.

But maybe it would be smarter to add a frontend to the notifications package which allows you to browse the notifications you would have gotten by E-Mail and view them online. There you could
* channel which delivery method you would prefer for what kind of message
* Third party apps like ]project-open[ could channel their project status notifications through there
* A private messaging system could then hook into the same notification package and create a notification for a single user (or a group of users)

Just an idea for a different approach for Joe, maybe the OCT could comment if such a move would could be envisioned (extending notifications to provide an interface for triggered notifications with the *option* of sending an e-mail once triggered) for the toolkit before anyone thinks how this could be achieved.
