Note that lots of network check ( the ones defined in bb-services ) will not report statuses on a line starting with &color, they start with "Service..." . The following perl snippet is what I use to pick out statuses in my custom notification script.
$subject="$ENV{BBHOSTSVC}: $ENV{BBCOLORLEVEL} ";
foreach( split('\n',$ENV{BBALPHAMSG}) ) {
if ( /^\&(yellow|red|purple)/ ){
$message .= $_;
}
if ( /^Service.* not OK/ ){
$message = $_;
}
}Then use smtp mail to send out an email, you can concatenate $subject and $message togheter to if you whish to send out a message with no subject, nice for phones and pagers.

Mail message would include specific information about related process or service' name if we use MAIL in hobbit-alerts.cfg, e.g. "&red Cisco Systems, Inc. VPN Service - Stopped".
How can we display similar messages in alert script while a process or service triggers the alert?
The full status message text is passed in the BBALPHAMSG env. variable. Process that to pick out lines with "&red", "&yellow" and so on. E.g.
echo "$BBALPHAMSG" | egrep "^&red|&yellow"
