I am having a bit of trouble with the alerts. I have the following rule:

HOST=%
        MAIL user-490a14721d84@xymon.invalid COLOR=red EXSERVICE=http RECOVERED
What do you get when you run the followign test for a host

./bin/bbcmd hobbitd_laert --test host.domain service

And 
./bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --dump-config

You may want to post it here to help you troubleshoot 
My understanding is that this should work as follows:

For ALL hosts:
	Mail user-490a14721d84@xymon.invalid
		if, the alert is RED only
		and if the service is other than http
		and mail when it recovers


What actually happens is:

	I get ALL alerts, for ALL colors, and ALL services


What did I do wrong?

Please advise.

Thank you

Kevin
