You don't have to catch the notification at all.
The app doesn't even have to know, that it arrived at all.
The notification client just displays the number badge on the  
Application, and maybe sends some alarm to the user.
If/when the user starts the app, the app connects to the desktop  
client, and fetches every message that waits there.
