Hi Ryan,
Here's what I use, in three parts:
FIRST:  The mail script /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail
#!/opt/csw/bin/bash
#
# Script get the following environment variables pre-defined so
# that they can send a meaningful alert:
#
#    BBCOLORLEVEL  - The current color of the status
#    BBALPHAMSG    - The full text of the status log triggering the alert
#    ACKCODE       - The "cookie" that can be used to acknowledge the alert
#    RCPT          - The recipient, from the SCRIPT entry
#    BBHOSTNAME    - The name of the host that the alert is about
#    MACHIP        - The IP-address of the host that has a problem
#    BBSVCNAME     - The name of the service that the alert is about
#    BBSVCNUM      - The numeric code for the service. From SVCCODES definition.
#    BBHOSTSVC     - HOSTNAME.SERVICE that the alert is about.
#    BBHOSTSVCCOMMAS - As BBHOSTSVC, but dots in the hostname replaced with commas
#    BBNUMERIC     - A 22-digit number made by BBSVCNUM, MACHIP and ACKCODE.
#    RECOVERED     - Is "1" if the service has recovered.
#    EVENTSTART    - Timestamp when the current status (color) began
#    DOWNSECS      - Number of seconds the service has been down.
#    DOWNSECSMSG   - When recovered, holds the text "Event duration : N" where
#                    N is the DOWNSECS value.
#    CFID          - Line-number in the hobbit-alerts.cfg file that caused the script to be invoked.
#                    Can be useful when troubleshooting alert configuration rules
#
# Minumum hobbit-alerts.cfg entry -
# SCRIPT /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail support FORMAT=PLAIN
#

if [ ${RECOVERED} = 1 ]
then
        export BBCOLORLEVEL="RECOVERED"
        export BBCOLOR="green"
else
        export BBCOLOR=$BBCOLORLEVEL
fi

        {$msg->attach(Type => 'image/gif', Id => 'yellow.gif', Path => '/opt/hobbit/server/www/gifs/yellow.gif')}

$msg->send();
THIRD:  Configure your hobbit-alerts.cfg lines like this:
SCRIPT /opt/hobbit/bin/htmlmail Someone at nowhere.com FORMAT=TEXT
You will obviously need to adjust all of the paths to suit your installation!  And don''t forget to check you have the MIME::Lite perl module and whatever other dependencies it requires.
HTH,
Andy.

Thanks for the quick reply!
Make a custom script; can someone share me the their script and teach me how to configure it?
Thanks in advance!
Regards.

Pretty sure you'll have to create a custom script and put in the HTML code in the data section of your email.  To my knowledge you can't simply stick in text in the alert Hobbit sends.

  Hi all!

  Just a follow up newbie question.

  How can I make hobbit to send me alerts with icon like that alert below?
  I am receiving alerts like this:

  &yellow Warnings in &lt;a href="/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?CLIENT=HOST&amp;SECTION=msgs:/var/adm/messages">/var/adm/messages&lt;/a>
