I would assume they could be used in any 'downstream' stage, have you tried using them in the body of a Notification email?

Double-check the Oracle client versions on each server that you are leveraging for DataStage, that's usually what bites people.

Any such messages will already be in the log, so it depends on what you mean by 'capture'. Email? Then a Notification Activity should be fine, I would think.
