so if i set max_check_attempts to 1 I will get an immediate email alert on
soft states
because the soft-state will time out and turn to a hard starte. Correct?

define host{
        use             generic-switch          ; Inherit default values
from a template
        host_name       Trafficbuyer                ; The name we're giving
to this switch
        alias           Trafficbuyer        ; A longer name associated with
the switch
        address         10.10.10.10           ; IP address of the switch
        max_check_attempts      1
        hostgroups      switches                ; Host groups this switch is
associated with
        contact_groups  FT
        }
