jabber notification script

[Emilio Casbas]

Hi,

I set up nagios-notifications via jabber.
I used the notify_via_jabber script from David Cox found. It's a little 
perl script to transforms your message to a valid jabber message and 
sends it to the jabber-server.

Now, I made some enhancements to the script, so that you can add the 
subject as an argument from a nagios macro.
I think it could be interesting.

# MAXWAIT is used because the send message function didn't seem to
# like being called to fast. The message would be sent unless I waited a 
second
# or so. You can experiment with it but I just went with 2 seconds.
