Count me in on this.  I've induced a couple of process failures on a

should I provide or look for?
The status message says:
status radm200p,nandomedia,com.procs red Fri Jan 28 10:44:38 EST 2005 
so it is the "procs" column that is in error.
HOST=radm200p.nandomedia.com
        MAIL user-52400382fe79@xymon.invalid SERVICE=proc COLOR=yellow REPEAT=5m
        MAIL user-56294d1c8449@xymon.invalid SERVICE=proc COLOR=red REPEAT=5m
But here you have rules for the "proc" (no "s") column.

If I setup a config with these rules, but SERVICE=procs, your message
triggers an alert e-mail.


Me thinks it would be nice to have a "test" option for the alert
module, so you can run it with a hostname + testname as input, and it
will tell you which rules match, and which rules does not.
