Small job for proficient qmail/linux admin

Hi,

I have a qmail-based mail server which has been installed according to the guide on qmailrocks.org

I intend to offer my users the option of SMS text notifications upon receipt of an email, using clickatell.com
as the host for such services. As the system is administered mostly graphically through the vqadmin and qmailadmin web interfaces, these tools would need modification also.

Although I'm proficient enough with linux (in this case fedora core 3) to be able to crawl my way through the install, I have neither the time nor the proficiency for this task i need doing, so although normally I'd be more than thankful to hear suggestions as to how I might do this myself, this time I'm looking for someone with the time to do this one-off job for a reasonable fee. I hope recruitment isn't against this list's policies!

I have drawn up a rough specification which is as follows:

I need extra fields in qmailadmin as follows:

firstly, a tickbox which states:

Clickatell.com sms notification

if ticked, the following fields should be presented:

clickatell.com smtp api_id: (the entered details should set the api_id variable)
clickatell.com user: (the entered details should set the clickatell_user variable)
clickatell.com password: (the entered details should set the clickatell_password variable)
Mobile number to recieve email notifications: (the entered details should set the mobile_number variable)

Text you would like to recieve as notification:
(field should be pre-filled in with something
like "Email from:<sender>subject:<subject>",
but should be editable should an alternative be required), whatever's in here will set the notification_text variable

there should be four more tick boxes as follows:

"I only want to be texted when the subject includes the following word(s)"
(if ticked, box appears where keywords can be entered)

"I only want to be texted when the email is from"
(if ticked, box appears where keywords can be entered)

"don't text me if the email is from"
(if ticked, box appears where keywords can be entered)

"don't text me if the subject includes the word(s)"
(if ticked, box appears where keywords can be entered)

If the "clickatell.com sms notification" tickbox is ticked, and the following 5 fields have been filled out,
every time that user recieves an email, subject to the rules set out in the last four options above, an email
will be sent to sms@messaging.clickatell.com with the following text in the email body:

api_id:<api_id>
user:<clickatell_user>
password:<clickatell_password>
to:<mobile_number>
text:<notification_text>
