Do You know how i can send a sms-alert with hobbit i didn't find a script for send a sms . How do you do for send a sms alert ?

There are a few ways to do this. In general, they rely on email-to-SMS gateways. You can either host one yourself:

• connect a mobile phone to a computer and run something like Gnokii (see http://tools.rebel-it.com.au/sms-transport/ for a script that converts mail to Gnokii)
• connect a modem to a computer and run something like smsclient (see http://smsclient.sourcearchive.com/documentation/2.0.8z-7/main.html) - this requires that a local carrier provides an SMS TAP (or similar) service.
• use a USB 3G modem - these usually support sending SMS messages
• use a stand-alone device, like the kickstarter project SmushBox ( http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/smush/smart-sms-texting-for-everyone-the... )

Or you can use a commercial mail-to-sms gateway - some mobile carriers offer such a service to their customers for cheap or free. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_SMS_gateways

For some solutions (eg Gnokii) lack of queuing is a problem, in that if a messages is ready to be sent but the phone signal drops, then the messages is lost. In such cases it's helpful to incorporate a mail service that can retry when a message fails.
