Yes, moving "FORMAT=SMS" to the end of the line did the trick. Thanks
for the suggestion.

Subject: Re: [hobbit] alert MAIL FORMAT=SMS generates large message
Try the rule like so:
MAIL user-65be84e1496e@xymon.invalid COLOR=red REPEAT=20 RECOVERED FORMAT=SMS

The alert action happens when it's supposed to, but the admin does not
receive the special tiny-size SMS. Instead he receives the large-size
email that MAIL FORMAT=TEXT would generate, which his phone service
splits up into four separate messages. Has anyone else seen this? Is
there something subtle I'm doing wrong?
