All,  I have formated the messages from my devmon tests as html tables,
which looks very nice on the Xymon web pages, but not so good when emailed
out in alerts. Is there any trick to getting the html tags replaced for
tabs and cr so it looks ok on email? I guess a bit of a script with some
regex transforms would do it.
We use the command links for that.  Save the content in /tmp/TEMP1 and use 
links to convert from html to tekst:

links -dump /tmp/TEMP1 > /tmp/TEMP2
