Here comes the web developer again.  :-D

Here's what I would do: create a web template that only shows the down
checks.  This template could be HTML, or for that matter, it could be
plain text.

Then, send the contents of the file using Postie, my favorite
command-line email tool:

http://www.infradig.com/postie/index.shtml

Now, that only lets you send all alerts to all people - if you wanted to
get fancy, you could create different templates for different groups of
people.  It's just a thought on how you could get started doing it
yourself.

Since you can now configure multiple alerts (mail even) per entry how
should SA then know which ones to group?  All?  If all then you could
get several doubles.
>From my point of view this is not something I want within the generic
product as such it would cause way too many problems and exceptions.
If you want this as custom dev contact me offlist and tell me exactly
what/how/...and we can talk about it.

This is probably going to sound kind of strange, but does anyone else
here wish that SA could send multiple alerts in a single message, the
way it does \ did when sending MAPI alerts? We had to stop using MAPI
alerts when we started running SA as a service.

Dirk,
        I know I've spoken to you about this before, but I'd like to see
what it would cost to possibly do something like this for us, if no one
else wants it. Or would it work, if we just acquired a third party SMTP
mailer, and used it as an external check? 

Thanks a lot for a great product!


Jesse.
