Sure, if Growl is all you need. Obi2Yac includes YAC support (Obviosly) :P + OpenCNAM queries. Best still, not closed source. ;D

Never content in something only doing one thing, and just because I could, I have been making a few changes to Obi2Yac to help me receive notifications. I don't know if folks would be interested, but if you are let me know and I'll post the code. So here is the scenerio.
I have a home alarm system. It is self managed and it has an auto dialer. We are in the 21st century and auto dialers are so old school, but still safe bets. I wanted my alarm to alert me, neighbors and anyone else I want via email and text messaging before the auto dialer even completes the first call. Since Obi2Yac is already monitoring Syslog messages, I figured why not also monitor for DTMF. The challenge is that I don't want to set the thing off every time my cell number is dialed. So the solution was to set speed dials as the trigger with the added advantage that the auto dialer completes a call quicker.
I set Obi2Yac to look for one of these three triggers: 69#, 70# or 71#. Each one can have a unique message sent. I used the basic SMTP function built into Autoit and as a consequence, it isn't all that robust, but I didn't want to over-complicate the app. To compensate I used the built in SMTP server which you can install with Windows XP Pro. It does the job. :) The SMTP server then forwards to my ISPs smart host. Currently I have the app only send to one email address, but the code can be updated to handle as many as you need. I choose to use Gmail to auto forward these Emails to SMS gateways to text folks. Just easier to manage there. The result is of course that folks get the text message & email, before the call even completes.
This of course should tell you that hardware hackers out there that want to use the Obi as a cheap DTMF decoder in order to trigger an event, this is great stuff. :-)
Take care...

I have posted a new version online. It has the DTMF trigger code as well as an update on how it handles 11 and 10 digit CIDs.
Take care..

Hello i was wondering if you could help me with this request:
http://www.obitalk.com/forum/index.php?topic=6076.0
also interested on getting notification with that info so the client can see the minutes talked with detail, the number dialed and if is possible to add other usefull info then is welcomed.
I know that your software is for incoming calls, this request is only for outcoming calls.
Let me know if its possible or if its too much to ask lol as i said im willing to negotiate for this, it opens another small business posiblity.
Regards,
