If you mean the sendSMS.sh script from foxbox, then you can use it  
with NoMa too -
the advantage is that you can log the failed sends and optionally  
escalate
to Mail or Voice.

i agree it would be a handy feature, especially if checks could also  
be scheduled
in localtime - I would use the standard system Timezone support though.
Anyway, this is the developer list -> get coding and create a  
patch!!! ;-)

you make it sound so easy... in my experience it's a lot more complex  
- countries
have a habit of changing aroung their DST changeovers on a whim.
I'm thinking here particularly of Western Australia.
