Alert is a statement defining the alert to be sent for just one service, but since alert also is an action the statement should say:

 check host blablabla with address 999.999.999.999
     if failed port 21 protocol ftp with timeout 15 seconds then alert
     ALERT [EMAIL PROTECTED] MAIL-FORMAT { from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] }


It may look confusing and an alternative is to define a global alert which may be more clear:

set [EMAIL PROTECTED] MAIL-FORMAT { from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] }

 check host blablabla with address 999.999.999.999
     if failed port 21 protocol ftp with timeout 15 seconds then alert
