Double and missing alerts 🔗 link

I've been getting double alert mails for one of my servers, and no
alerts for others. I'm wondering if the problem is related to my using
the UNMATCHED rule. It's not listed on the man page for
hobbit-alerts.cfg so I probably copied it from my earlier Big Brother
config without thinking. Is there an UNMATCHED equivalent in Hobbit?

Here's the current rules. I'm getting double e-mails for all tests on
atscm-setnas2.set.local. I'm also getting no alerts for the http test on
two servers that don't match the rules here. I didn't realize that until
I followed the info link for them and saw No Alerts Defined in the
alerting table.
