Agreed. Unless you create a custom alert email script (in whatever language
you wish) and then use a conditional statement not to send emails on yellow.
As far as Hobbit would know ... it alerted on yellow but that doesn't mean
you have to receive an email on it :)

Just a thought if you wanted to try it.

Correct.  However, if you do that, you live with getting paged on yellow
alerts, not just recoveries.

Alan is correct. Unless you have alerting configured for yellow as
well ... it if goes from red to yellow to green, you will not get a
recovered notification. There is no solution I am aware of other than
adding in yellow alerts. Thanks.

Hello,

When a red alert happens, then goes to yellow, then finally to
    green,
there is no recovered notification.

Is there a way to have a notification for this case please?
    Long time issue.  You can find a little on it if you Google.  My
    analysis can be seen in this post

    There is AFAIK no current solution for the problem.
