Hi Henrik,

My network admin was wondering if there was a way to set the high
importance flag on the emails that are sent out by certain servers. It'll
have his smartphone chime a different sound if the message is marked as
high importance than regular mail.
It would be useful to me if the priority flag from the hobbit-nkview.cfg were available in alert scripts (as we'll be logging events to a larger proprietary event management tool). Also, it really does make sense that alerts should have this information (and it would be useful if alert rules could be written for this data, as quite often whether to alert or not is common across tests of the same priority).

Regards,
Buchan
