I realize I'm a bit late to this thread, and you may have already
figured this out, but if I understand correctly, the <command> element
inside <active-response> must match the <name> element inside the
previous command block.

Above, you configure a command called "mailtest", but then call a
command "svncheck".

I believe your active-response block should look more like:

<active-response>
 <command>mailtest</command>
 <location>defined-agent</location>
 <agent_id>349</agent_id>
 <rules_id>5712</rules_id>
</active-response>

Again, forgive me if you already got past this, but that is the way I
understand the Active Response documentation from the book.
