sending a message on next page refresh or login

[vjwork]

I'm using the messaging system to notify users of actions in synchronous session, but I also have some long runnning background tasks for certain users.

How do insert a message into the django message framework for a user without having a request available? Is that possible at all?

On page refresh, can you check the task status and generate the message then since you'll have the request?
