It went through this time, but I never got the confirmation e-mail for some reason.

I'm setting it up now to send automatic notifications and forwarding them to my cell phone via www.teleflip.com. There's still a lot of information not being populated, however, such as the vulnerability assessments (these are mostly M$ boxen so you know that ain't right) and installed software; but I'm quite sure I haven't set up even a fraction of the options necessary to get all of that working correctly.
