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

EOF
+print MAIL "Service Status : ", ($opt_u ? "UP" : "DOWN"), "\n";
+
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.
