If you're needing to have warnings sent via email and criticals
sent via SMS (for example), it's not difficult.  The solution isn't
what I'd call simple or ideal, but:

1) Define two contacts for each user
2) One contact gets notifications via email, and its only alerting
   options are warning and recovery
3) One contact gets notifications via SMS, and its only alerting
   options are critical and recovery
4) Add *both* contacts to each host/service that you want monitored
   in this fashion

Nice, simple, and clean?  Nope.  But it works and works well.
