Thanks Betsy! I'll try testing this way.
Now, since I have your attention ;), do you happen to know how I can test why my service monitors arent' working?
I've been working on the email issue and now seem to have another issue. I shut down the bbwin service on two windows computers that xymon was monitoring and it's not alerting that the service and/or process has stopped.
Much appreciated!

What's the best way to troubleshoot my rules/settings to figure out where I'm setting the duplicated target recipients at?
Try on the server: /usr/local/xymon/server/bin/xymond_alert --test <host> <options>
example: /usr/local/xymon/server/bin/xymond_alert --test myhost.example.com disk /usr/local/xymon/server/bin/xymond_alert --test myhost.example.com --color=yellow --duration=200 #in seconds
This will show you exactly which rules in alerts.cfg are firing. (substitute correct path for your xymon installation)
