Package: mon Version: 1.2.0-1 Severity: minor
UP and DOWN alert emails differ only by a prepended "UP" to the subject line of the former. This means if you're reading using a mail client, such as K-9 Mail for Google Android, which auto- scrolls past the headers, you cannot differentiate easily between a failure renotification and a recovery. I've applied the following patch: --- mail.alert.orig 2013-01-03 13:58:46.000000000 -0500 +++ mail.alert 2013-01-03 13:50:05.000000000 -0500 @@ -65,6 +65,8 @@ Secs until next alert : $opt_l EOF +print MAIL "Service Status : ", ($opt_u ?
