I think you mean to create a rule in my email to filter out unwanted messages? Thats a great idea, and will work for those alerts. Unfortunately, most of the people use text messaging to get the alerts. I don't believe any of our phone allow for rules of this type. This brings me back to SA being able to send alerts based on the %e parameter as well as the UP/DOWN condition.

Is it possible to have 2 different types of alert responses? Here's what has been asked: If the check fails due to a communication, time-out or other error = Alert type #1 for net admins If the check is sucessful in connecting, but fails the alert rule = Alert type #2 for others What I've been asked is essentialy to somehow prevent the people who are responsible as Alert group #2 from getting alerts that they can't do anything about (alert group #1 stuff). The DBA's can't fix ODBC failures or Com. errors and the Network Admins are getting tired of all the errors that the DBAs fix. Even being able to send alerts only when the check connects sucessfully, but fails the rule would help. Dependecies are only partially able to adjust for this, but it looks like the individual checks would need this capability. Any ideas?
