Disabling repeat alerts

I did try REPEAT=0 and it was every minute.  I'll just take your suggestion
and be done with it.  No big deal.

 I just say "REPEAT=365d".  Annual renotification is fine with me for
those really long-lasting problems!  I don't care much about how
"professional" it looks.  For me, 365d is actually clearer than 0.  One
would probably assume that 0 means "no repeats", but an assumption is still
the first step towards a screw up, and I prefer the unambiguous 365d setting
myself.

Thought so - if you do not specify a REPEAT argument it defaults to one
hours time.  Even on the info page it reads "-" under the repeat column =/

I thought I had it that way last week.  I'll let you know (hopefully not
too soon - customers are not pleased with downtime =)

 If you leave out the REPEAT entirely, it is assumed you don't get
repeating messages, if I recall correctly.  That's how we have it configured
for a couple of our customers' alerts.

Right now I have this line:

  MAIL user-4c45a83f15cb@xymon.invalid COLOR=RED DURATION>15m REPEAT=0
RECOVERED

What I was expecting out of that was for the REPEAT to simply not work
- it is still repeating the messages every few minutes =(  If I have to, I
can all back on repeating every 24h or something ridiculous, but I'd like a
more "professional" value!
