Adding iChat Notifications

In the Notify stage, you can add iChat notifications.

For iChat notifications to work, you need access to an iChat server running on
Mac OS X Server v10.6. If not, you must set up your own iChat server. Notifications fail
if sent through an iChat server running on Mac OS X Server v10.5 or earlier.

However, if you need to send the notifications through an iChat server running on
v10.5, you can set up an iChat server on a computer running v10.6 and federate it to
an iChat server running on a computer with v10.5. The notifications first go through
the iChat server running on the v10.6 computer and then through the iChat server
running on the v10.5 server.

The iChat server doesn’t need to run on the Podcast Producer server.
