RECOVERED alerts red->yellow

Hi Alan,

I think there is some confusion because in your first email you said:

I've read the sections on ALERTCOLORS and OKCOLORS.  It does work
better 
when I remove yellow from the list.  But I need to sometimes alert on yellow status, so this is not really an option.

But here you state:

red->yellow->green. If I use only the COLOR=red,yellow, I'm goind to get alerted on a yellow disk (undesired).

So we need to understand more clearly when you want to be alerted on red
and yellow and when you don't.

OK, I've tried:
SERVICE=disk COLOR=red
    MAIL user-57a2c775d2be@xymon.invalid COLOR=red,yellow RECOVERED

And even:
SERVICE=disk COLOR=red,yellow
    MAIL user-57a2c775d2be@xymon.invalid COLOR=red RECOVERED

And neither sends a recovery page when disk goes red->yellow->green. If I use only the COLOR=red,yellow, I'm goind to get alerted on a yellow disk (undesired).
Did I misunderstand your suggestion?  Thanks.
