I did not have a new line between NCV_ExchDB and NCV_smtphealth, but I
did add one but it didn't make a difference.
The ExchDB GAUGE is not working either.  When I dump the rrd file it
also shows up us DERIVE.  
I am running Hobbit 4.1.2p1.

Is it the formatting of your email client, or are you missing a
newline between NCV_ExchDB and NCV_smtphealth? Is NCV_ExchDB's gauge
working?

I have created a test to check the SMTP queues on a Windows box using
WMI  I have added the appropriate ncv settings to the hobbitserver.cfg
file and the also created the definition for the graph in
hobbitgraph.cfg.  I am getting the graph to display on my status page
but the lines are all flat.  I used the rrdtool to dump the results of
my rrd file and it looks like all of the data sets are being entered as
DERIVE although I specified GAUGE.  Here are some of the output.
