Hi folks. Thought I would share this. I modified the html_mail.pl script to replace hobbit or bb references with xymon references.  It was using some older pointers so I replaced that.

I also re-formatted the email piece to change the subject line.

I don't know if there is any interest in this, but I can share the .pl code if so.

I had a question about this though - if I want to keep only the item that has the alert and get rid of all the extra info from $bbalphmsg, is there some way to do that besides using FORMAT=SMS in the alerts.cfg file?  When I use FORMAT=SMS, I get a shorter msg, but then lose the other items that are alerting.

Regards,

Don K

Here's a snip of the long email with the Proto listing shortened.  I would only like the items with the alert in the email.
