</div>Will you look at your mail more often if you get one new mail every 10<br>
minutes, or do you expect your admins to react faster if you present<br>
them with buggerware?<br>
<br>
I think I know one or two installations where they've really sat down<br>
and thought about it and then figured out that more than one notification<br>
to the same person per problem is what they need.<br>

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and<br>
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war<br>
on peace.<br>
</font></span></blockquote></div><br>Andreas,<br>The timings are hypothetical (although, as it stands now, some WARNINGS are coming every 10 minutes...I want to convince my boss that it is too often). Having too many notifications is often times worse than not having any at all...If my boss REALLY wants the 10 minute emails, then I would like it to be only for CRITICAL problems...<br>
Thanks,<br>John<br>
