[hobbit] problem with alerting

if a service (cluster, conn, disk, ports, procs or eDIR) is switching= to red and stays red for more than 15 minutes a mail will be sent to a defined add= ress. No repeat.

I created a macro with the following parameters:

$NOVELL=MAIL user at domain.tld REPEAT=0 COLOR=red RECOVERED EXHOST=%-rib.*

But last night the service ports went down for over 4 hours on 1 client and XYmon sent out emails every minute

The "REPEAT=0" is the culprit here. Use some large value instead of 0.
