Recovery notifications not generated when test goes red->yellow->green?

It appears that if a test goes from the red state, to the yellow state,
and then to the green state, no recovery notification is sent.  If it
goes directly from red to green, then we get a notification.

Initial notifications are only sent on RED and PURPLE.  We have recovery
notifications configured for most tests.

Xymon server is 4.3.21, built using makerpm.sh and installed with yum on
CentOS 6.  I do not know whether our previous version (4.3.14) behaved
similarly.  It was almost an accident that I discovered the problem at all.

Is this expected behavior?  If it is, can I change it?

Thanks,
Shawn

Indeed, I noticed this several times, too.

From my memories, this already happened with 4.3.0, i.e. is no
(recent) regression.

I have noticed this behaviour on hobbit 4.2.0, so it seems to be a long-standing issue.

Is there any chance of anyone fixing this long-standing issue?  Apart from
the rather poor work-around of adding yellow to OKCOLORS and removing it
from ALERTCOLORS?
