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

+
 print MAIL wrap ("", "\t\t\t", "Members               : $opt_h"), "\n";

 print MAIL <<EOF;

This includes a server status line in the message body, in a natural
location.
