[atlas] Email or SMS alert when probe goes offline/online

Hi,
I see there was a thread started back on September 7, 2011 with
subject: Email or SMS alert when probe goes offline/online
this was prior to me joining the mailing list.

I'd like to voice my support for a user-configurable amount of time for the
Atlas system to send out an email notification that your probe is down (and
returned to service).

My probe which I run on my home internet connection was apparently down for
3.5 days before I just happened to login to look at the stats. Considering
I was at home for much of these 3.5 days, and my Internet connection was
working, I assume the probe crashed because simply power-cycling it "fixed"
the problem.

I know that if I got an email ~15 minutes after the probe was down, my
probes downtime would probably have been closer to about 30 minutes rather
than 3.5 days.

Thanks.

-Greg
