Does hobbit support acks through email? Thanks

I am using it. You should be able to use the same shell script that was in Bigbrother.

The only thing different is the following line in shell script

Bigbrother: $BB $BBPAGE "ack ack_event ${ACKCODE} ${DELAY} ${MESSAGE}"

Hobbit: $BB $BBPAGE "hobbitdack ${ACKCODE} ${DELAY} ${MESSAGE}"

Actually, it should work even without this change. The "ack ack_event" command is recognized by hobbitd. I didn't see any reason why I should break existing scripts, when it was so simple to just make it work.
