Can you have two duration directives, like this? I've been looking for a way to stop notifications after a period of time, is this the answer?

MAIL me at myserver.com DURATION>10 DURATION<120

I've been asked to try to make alerts only send 2 emals, at most, and still send a RECOVERED message when things recover. As a quick test, I set DURATION<30, and REPEAT=15, and after forcing a service down, for over an hour, achieved the two email alerts - but after bringing the service back up, did not get sent a recovered message.

Hmm - hadn't thought about that. I'd say it ought to work, but looking at the way recovery messages are handled it seems you're right - if the max. duration has been reached, the recovery message is never sent.

It's a bug. Will fix.
