Vernon,

You may need a separate rule for the recovery condition. Or maybe the cleaner solution is to write a small script to handle paging. I did. Hobbit has environment variables set if there is a recovery or it is a new message. I am not familar with the SMS format, I use plain 'ole send mail to a pager for alerts. But I would doubt sending to SMS would be difficult.

Regards, Jim

OK, then does anybody know if there a workaround for this?

I want an e-mail on any colour fail, and an e-mail on recovery. On a condition red, I want an SMS, and an SMS on recovery from a red.
