Host is down but there aren't any further alerts

[Wheeler, MG]

Been there, done that!  Read all the FAQ's as well. Everyone keeps saying to check the notifications_interval which is the first (and basic step.) but seeing the basic questions people keep asking I can understand that reply only I've gone through that top to bottom. I've included ALL my configs in earlier posts as well.

Read up on notification_interval and escalations. It's all well documented.
Making sure you're running the latest stable release can't really hurt 
either.
